Importance of ongoing data reporting through Ohio Disease Reporting System (ODRS)

On a call yesterday with LeadingAge Ohio, Department of Aging (ODA) Director Ursel McElroy and Medical Director Dr. John Weigand noted that there have been a significant number of facilities for whom data have not been reported to the Ohio Disease Reporting System (ODRS) on a weekly basis. This reporting is aggregated to show hot spots of COVID-19 outbreaks and is used by the state to advocate for allocation of medications to these hot spots. If you note that the data you’ve reported is not accurately reported in the state’s weekly COVID-19 dashboard, please reach out to Stephanie DeWees at sdewees@leadingageohio.org ASAP.
