Public Health Data Collection and Reporting in New York

< Return to New York

The New York Commissioner of Health has the duty to collect and maintain vital statistics and disease data.1 The Commissioner carries out such duties with the help of numerous data systems such as the client service report system,2 the medical assistance information and payment system,3 and the cancer registry.4

New York requires health facilities and/or physicians to report disease (e.g. Alzheimer’s, cancer, HIV) and patient safety information to either the department or Commissioner.5 New York also requires medical examiners, pathologists, and coroners to report HIV and AIDs information to the Commissioner6 and nurses and midwives to report instances of infant eye inflammation to local health officers or medical practitioners.7

Providers of laboratory, pharmacy, radiation, physical therapy, and imagining services must report information regarding their ownership arrangements to the Commissioner every two years.8
