ACC Validation and Data Export Quick Guide
Result Summary and Reports
Validation
Validation ensures that your data is correct and complete.
Even just one missing mandatory field can prevent the
submission file from being created. If there is missing data in
any field requested by the ACC, the registry may not accept
the data submission.
The Result Summary identifies all fields in the patient event
record, If all the fields in a table are complete, the phrase
Individual entries for the record are OK appears next to the
table name. All incomplete fields are listed.
When you validate one or more records, a list of fields is
created where data needs to be entered or reviewed. You can
then go back in the record and fill in the missing data before
submission to ACC.
Click the red check icon
to start a registry validation.
Starting the Validation
Validations can be performed on an individual record or all
records. Fill in the following to run a validation:
•
•
•
Select All records to validate all records in the data
export.
Enter the Start Date and End Date for the range you
want to validate validation. If validating before a
registry data export, select the Start Date and End
Date that corresponds with the start and end dates
of the data submission. (The Start Date and End Date
refer to the discharge dates for each procedure.)
Select a Validation Type.
At the bottom of a record the phrase RECORD OK will appear
if all the fields in that record were filled in completely. If that
phrase does not appear, one or more fields in the record
need to be corrected. Scroll back up in the Result Summary to
see which fields need to be changed.
Optionally, you can click View Report in Word or View
Report in Excel. This opens the result summary in the
selected program and provides an easier-to-read, printable
presentation of the same information.
o
All to validate all the Validation Types below.
We recommend using this Validation Type
before data submission.
o
Missing to see fields that do not contain data.
Mapping Apollo Data to ACC Fields
o
Invalid/Illegal to see data that would prevent
the export file from being accepted and may
prevent the export file from being created.
o
Unusual to see data that is harvested but is out
of range.
The specification document (shipped with the ACC Registry
on the CDImage) describes how LUMEDX fields map to ACC
data. In that document you can search for an Apollo field
name and compare it to the corresponding ACC name.
When finished, click Run to run the validation.
Data Export
Running the Export
Use the Registry Export utility to create a zip file that can be
exported to the ACC.
In Registry Export click the Start button
to begin. Enter
or select your participant ID and select the correct quarter
and year, and then click OK to begin.
If you are accessing the Registry Export program via SaaS, log
on using your SaaS credentials and select RegExp. If you are
using a version of Registry Export installed on your desktop,
double-click the RegExp icon to open the utility or, using Start
> Programs, open RegExp from the LUMEDX group. When the
program opens, select an ACC registry.
•
If the export is successful, the Export Output form
will appear, showing the data exported.
•
If unsuccessful, you will be instructed to view the
Qualification Report (View > ACC Qualification
Report). This report will show all fields where data is
missing or needs to be reviewed. Open Apollo
Advance and make corrections, then run the export
again.
Go to Edit > Configuration to view the location of the
Configuration Database, Intermediate Database, and Output
File Path. The Output File Path shows the location where the
zip file will be stored after running the export.
The data export zip file will be saved to the location shown in
the Output File Path.
Removing PHI from the Data Export
Important: Get permission from ACC before
removing personal health information for
registries other than ACC PCI or ACTION.
Personal health information (PHI) can be removed from the
export file. See the Validation and Data Export e-learning
lesson or the ACC Data Entry Quick Guide for instructions.
NCDR Maintenance
If you have not previously entered registry participant
information in the Registry Export tool, you will need to do
. Then, on the Registry form,
so. Click the Start button
click the NCDR Maintenance button and complete the
following information:
•
•

the NCDR website after login.
Participant NPI: Your site’s National Provider
Identifier.
Medicare Provider Number: Your site’s Medicare
Provider Number (not required).

Data Upload
The zip file containing your data is uploaded to the ACC
website (www.ncdr.com) on a quarterly basis. Log into the
registry website using the Participant Login button in the
upper right corner of the page.
After login, select the correct registry under Registries by
Name on the toolbar. On the registry page, under the Data
tab, you can select the Data Collection Tool. Then use the
Data Collection tool to upload the zip file saved during export.

harvest report to see how your hospital compares to other
facilities. For more information, contact the registry.

Registry Customization Quick Guide Hide a Field on the Validation Tab When you have the Validation tab displayed, you may not want all fields to appear. This is a global change that will affect all Apollo Advance users. To hide a field on the Validation tab: 1.
Reorder or Remove a Registry Name from the Registry Validation report The Registry Validation dialog box is opened by clicking the Registry Validation button on the toolbar. At the top of the screen is a list of registries from which you can choose. In the Apollo tree, Data folder, open ApReport.mdb in Microsoft Access. 2.

The field will still appear on the Registry Validation report. Reorder or Remove a Risk Score version from the Risk Scores list If you want to change the order of the Risk Score list you can do so. This is a global change that will affect all Apollo Advance users. In the Apollo tree, Data folder, open ApReport.mdb in Microsoft Access. 2.
Open the SS_RiskStratificationTests table. 3.
In the Sequence column for the row you want to reorder, enter a sequence number that is higher than the field directly above the next item and lower than the field directly below the item. 4.
Click the row above or below the row you changed to save your changes. In the Apollo tree, Data folder, open ApReport.mdb in Microsoft Access. 2.
Open the SSValidationDriver table. 3.

1.
1.
In the Apollo tree, Data folder, open ApReport.mdb in Microsoft Access. 2.
Open the SSValidationDriver table. 3.
Change the value in the Active column to 0. Change the Order of Registries in the Export List You can change the order in which registries display in the registry export list in the Export Utility. This change is done at the workstation level in the Apollo32.ini file. To change the order of registries in Registry Export: To delete an item from the Risk Scores list: 1.
Highlight the row and press the DELETE key on your keyboard. Click the row above or below the item to save your changes. 2.
Open the Apollo32.ini file. You can do so either by opening Apollo32.ini using Start > Run in Windows or by clicking the View INI File button in Workstation Configuration. In the Registries section, replace the registry name after the = sign with the registry name you want to assign to that position. You can use cut and paste to do so. Example [Registries] Reg1=STS261Comp Reg2=ACCPCIv4.4 Reg3=ACCICDv2 ;Reg4=NYPCI11 ;Reg5=NYSURG11 ;Reg6=NYPEDSURG11 ;Reg7=NYPEDSURG08 (A semicolon (;) at the beginning of a row means that registry is hidden and will not display in the list.) Remove Extra Registry Validation Icons Only one registry validation icon should appear in the Apollo toolbar. If multiple icons appear, follow the steps below to remove the extra icons. To remove extra registry validation icons: 1.
Log into Apollo using an Admin level account. 2.
Go to Administration > Add‐In Manager. 3.
In the Add‐In Name column, look for all records with the name of Registry Validation. To the right of each icon will be one or more tables. Find the Registry Validation record with the most complete list of tables. 4.
Delete all Registry Validation records except for the one with the largest number of tables listed. 5.
Close then reopen Apollo. You should only see one Registry Validation icon in the toolbar and one record in the Add‐Ins > Registry Validation table. For example, say that you have three records with the Add‐in Name of Registry Validation. The tables for each record are as follows: Record 1 2 3 Tables Event_STS Event_STS and Event_Cath Event_Cath You would delete records 1 and 3. Since Record 2 has the largest number of tables, it is the most complete record. Information subject to change without notice. © 2013 LUMEDX Corporation. All rights reserved.
