Are there accuracy performance measures tailored to the needs of EMS system managers and data users?

252Partially Meets Advisory Ideal
The Accuracy Performance Measure is the percent of EMS records with no errors in a critical data element (occupant restraint usage or other data element). The baseline given shows 89% report occupant restraint. Because occupant restraint only applies to a fraction of all EMS run it is not clear how this performance measure is tailored to the needs of the data owner. It is also not clear how reporting occupant restraint usage automatically implies that it is accurate. This performance measure could be considered for tracking completeness.
