Data Submission

A critical function of the MI AIM collaborative is collecting and analyzing state, region and hospital-specific data to better understand maternal health outcomes and gaps in care. Collaborative members play a vital role in the collaboratives ability to analyze data through their voluntary submission of both process and outcome data into the organization’s database.

How to Submit

KeyMetrics is the data collection and reporting tool used by MI AIM. The MI AIM Dashboard on KeyMetrics provides state, regional and hospital level views for participants to understand areas of opportunity for improvement within each MI AIM patient safety bundle.

The MI AIM Dashboard is available to Michigan birthing hospitals who participate in the MI AIM Collaborative. Participants may request access to the MI AIM Dashboard via KeyMetrics. To request an account, click the image to be directed to the KeyMetrics log-in page.

Please contact us with any questions.

Members are encouraged to watch the data overview learning module to learn how to navigate the MI AIM Dashboard.
