Notes:

The term “states” includes the 50 states, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico.

States can voluntarily report the Child and Adult Core Set measures. The 2020 Child Core Set includes 24 measures. The 2020 Adult Core Set includes 33 measures.

States used Child or Adult Core Set specifications to calculate the measures. Some states calculated measures using “other specifications.” Measures were denoted as using “other specifications” when the state deviated substantially from the Child or Adult Core Set specifications, such as using alternate data sources, different populations, or other methodologies. The state median includes the total number of measures reported by each state, regardless of whether the state used Child or Adult Core Set or “other” specifications.
