accuracy

Since July 2005 when the Department of Social and Health Services first began tracking Kitsap Mental Health Services’ (KMHS) data entry to monitor for errors as part of a statewide tracking effort, KMHS has had a track record of nearly 100 percent accuracy in user entries. More than 693,790 individual transactions have been submitted by the agency during this time for a .05 percent transaction error rate during the entire period. KMHS was recently commended for showing only three errors in recent entries, a near 100 percent resolution/mitigation rate for data entry.

KMHS contracts with the Peninsula Regional Support Network (PRSN) to provide computer support for the PRSN’s entire service area. Located in Kitsap County, PRSN oversees delivery of mental health services by providers in Clallam, Jefferson and Kitsap counties.
