Hi all,
Sorry for asking this naïve question: In the context of data sets, what are reporting rates and how to calculate them in the dhis 2?
I am a beginner and still learning Dhis 2.
Looking forward to a detailed explanation.
Thanks
Hello fernando shake
Good day. Regarding your question, Reporting rate is the percentage of actual reports compared to the expected number of reports. Relevant terms include;
- Actual reports: the actual number of reports recorded
- Expected reports: the number of expected reports based on organisation units where the data set and the reporting frequency has been assigned.
- Reporting rates on time: the reporting rates based on timely form submissions. A timely submission must happen within a number of days after the reporting period.
For instance, if a Country District has 60 hospital facilities that are expected to input medical reports on specific illnesses recorded within a month (November), the data is expected to be available by the next month (December), if only 46 facilities have submitted their data sets out of the 60 facilities expected. Therefore; The Reporting rate is 76.67%
Reporting rate is the percentage of actual reports (46 facilities) compared to the expected number (60 Facilities) of reports.
