title: Best Mapped Concepts Results, PEDSnet Database (2025-07)

description: Results vary greatly by site and domain. "Best" and "Not Best" values are defined on the latest version of the [DQ Dashboard](https://pedsnet.org/ndq/) and in the PEDSnet Common Data Model, v5.8. Thirteen threshold violations were flagged in this data cycle: 1. A low proportion of "best" mapped values in the Provider table applied to the Outpatient Provider Specialty domain. This flag indicates, 19.8% of values in this domain are designated as "best", which is less than the minimum expected value of 35.1% (based on comparison to the rest of the network". 2. A low proportion of "best" mapped values in the Location FIPS table applied to the Census Block Group Geocode domain. This flag indicates, 75.7% of values in this domain are designated as "best", which is less than the minimum expected value of 84% (based on comparison to the rest of the network". 3. A low proportion of "best" mapped values in the Location FIPS table applied to the Census Tract Geocode domain. This flag indicates, 75.7% of values in this domain are designated as "best", which is less than the minimum expected value of 84% (based on comparison to the rest of the network". 4. A low proportion of "best" mapped values in the ADT Occurrence table applied to the service_concept_id domain. This flag indicates, 67.3% of values in this domain are designated as "best", which is less than the minimum expected value of 88% (based on comparison to the rest of the network". 5. A low proportion of "best" mapped values in the Care Site table applied to the Outpatient Care Site Specialty domain. This flag indicates, 16.4% of values in this domain are designated as "best", which is less than the minimum expected value of 78.5% (based on comparison to the rest of the network". 6. A low proportion of "best" mapped values in the Person table applied to the Gestational Age domain. This flag indicates, 0% of values in this domain are designated as "best", which is less than the minimum expected value of 15.5% (based on comparison to the rest of the network". 7. A low proportion of "best" mapped values in the Person table applied to the Race domain. This flag indicates, 78.8% of values in this domain are designated as "best", which is less than the minimum expected value of 82.1% (based on comparison to the rest of the network". 8. A low proportion of "best" mapped values in the Care Site table applied to the Outpatient Care Site Specialty domain. This flag indicates, 78.5% of values in this domain are designated as "best", which is less than the minimum expected value of 78.5% (based on comparison to the rest of the network". 9. A low proportion of "best" mapped values in the Care Site table applied to the Outpatient Care Site Specialty domain. This flag indicates, 78.3% of values in this domain are designated as "best", which is less than the minimum expected value of 78.5% (based on comparison to the rest of the network". 10. A low proportion of "best" mapped values in the Person table applied to the Gestational Age domain. This flag indicates, 1.6% of values in this domain are designated as "best", which is less than the minimum expected value of 15.5% (based on comparison to the rest of the network". 11. A low proportion of "best" mapped values in the Location FIPS table applied to the Census Block Group Geocode domain. This flag indicates, 33.8% of values in this domain are designated as "best", which is less than the minimum expected value of 84% (based on comparison to the rest of the network". 12. A low proportion of "best" mapped values in the Location FIPS table applied to the Census Tract Geocode domain. This flag indicates, 33.8% of values in this domain are designated as "best", which is less than the minimum expected value of 84% (based on comparison to the rest of the network". 13. A low proportion of "best" mapped values in the Person table applied to the Gestational Age domain. This flag indicates, 0% of values in this domain are designated as "best", which is less than the minimum expected value of 15.5% (based on comparison to the rest of the network".
description: This network analysis computes the proportion of concepts mapped to an ideal set of values. The output shows the proportion of concepts mapped to each level of a hierarchy (e.g. RxNorm for drugs) or categories of a categorical variable. All PEDSnet sites as of July 2025 were analyzed, but site names have been anonymized in this report.
description: The coordinating center has followed up with the flagged sites to remediate the threshold violations for the next data cycle.
