The Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project (HCUP) is sponsoring a free, one-day workshop on Thursday, September 15, from 9:00 a.m.–4:00 p.m. at the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) Conference Center in Rockville, Md. This instructor-led workshop is targeted at intermediate-level data users or people familiar with HCUP and will focus on conducting revisit analyses using HCUP state data. Computers will be provided and programming examples will be presented in SAS. Prior experience with HCUP databases, past participation in an HCUP introductory session, or taking the online overview course is encouraged.
The registration deadline is September 6; however, the workshop fills quickly so early registration is recommended. For more information and to register, please visit http://hcup-us.ahrq.gov/hcup_workshop.jsp. For questions, contact HCUP User Support at hcup@ahrq.gov.
