The New York State Department of Health (NYS DOH) shares de-identified and aggregated metrics on the NYS Medicaid program through the Health Data NY catalog and as summary statistics on DOH website. Datasets vary by subject/scope, unit of analysis, years of data collection, and update frequency. Publicly-available datasets in the Health Data NY catalog address topics including:

• Medicaid Program Enrollment Rates and Demographics
• Health Home Quality and Utilization
• Inpatient Admissions and Emergency Room Visits
• Incentive Payments
• Inpatient Potentially Preventable Readmission (PPR) Rates
• Newborn Low Birth Weight Rates
• Pediatric and Adult Discharge Quality Indicators
