# ECM 2021 Summary at the provider level

## Overview

This document provides a description of the submission package of the ECM provider level data and summary table created on ECM implementation.
We use the latest 2021 data from EHIF to measure the summary of the preliminary intervention uptake.

The details about the dataset are
detailed in the file **~/output/Microdata_submission.pdf`**.

## Datasets used

    This dataset is constructed from the primary healthcares data of 2021. Since it contains sensitive 
    identifiers such as claims number, patient ID and provider ID we aggregate the summary variables
    at the level of provider, de-identify, clean the dataset and then produce the summary.
