To ensure that the commission is using the best data to inform developing and implementing quality-based payment systems under Section 543A.0251, the commission shall evaluate the reliability, validity, and functionality of post-acute and long-term services and supports data sets. The commission's evaluation should assess:

(1) to what degree data sets on which the commission relies meet a standard:

(A) for integrating care;

(B) for developing coordinated care plans; and

(C) that would allow for the meaningful development of risk adjustment techniques;

(2) whether the data sets will provide value for outcome or performance measures and cost containment; and

(3) how classification systems and data sets used for Medicaid long-term services and supports providers can be standardized and, where possible, simplified. (Gov. Code, Sec. 536.252.)
