What are the advantages of receiving daily reports from NMMSS showing the data processing activity for my facility?
A. There are several advantages. First, daily reports allow you to verify the data sent to NMMSS was received or that you have sent all of the data you thought you sent. Occasionally, data arrives that is non-readable. Since the NMMSS staff cannot determine what was sent, they will not know data is missing or misrepresented. Secondly, daily reports allow you to see your errors. This will help identify and reduce your overall error rate.
