About the Uniform Data System (UDS)
The UDS is a standard data set that is reported annually by all health centers that receive federal award funds (Federally Qualified Health Centers) under the Health Center Program, as well as for health centers considered Health Center Program look-alikes. The UDS therefore provides consistent information about health centers. This core set of information for the calendar year encompasses patient characteristics, services provided, clinical processes and health outcomes, patients’ use of services, staffing, costs, and revenues. It is the source of unduplicated data for the entire scope of services included in the grant or designation for the calendar year. For more information about the UDS dataset, please see the Uniform Data System Reporting Instructions.
