• A. Inpatient discharge data have been collected and used since 1980. Today, data users want more timely information on the healthcare Californians are receiving. To meet the healthcare industry and public’s demand, legislation was passed in 1998 to collect Emergency Department and Ambulatory Surgery data. Section 128736 of the California Health and Safety Code dictates that ED & AS shall be reported to OSHPD.
