AHRQ Offers HCUP Data Users' Workshop on April 25 - Registration Now Open

Registration is now open for AHRQ's one-day instructor-led workshop on the use of Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project (HCUP) databases and software tools for health services research. The curriculum includes instruction and hands-on experience conducting revisit analyses with HCUP State data. The workshop is targeted at intermediate-level data users or people already familiar with HCUP. Prior experience with HCUP databases or prior attendance of an HCUP overview presentation, webinar or online course is encouraged. Computers will be provided and programming examples presented in SAS. HCUP is a family of health care databases, software tools, research publications, and support services created through a Federal-State-Industry partnership. HCUP is used for a broad range of health services research and policy issues at the national, State, and local market levels, including cost and quality of health services, medical practice patterns, access to health care, and outcomes of treatments. The workshop takes place Wednesday April 25 at the AHRQ Conference Center in Rockville, MD. There is no charge to attend, but registration is required. Early registration is encouraged because the workshop fills quickly. Select to register.
