We aimed to investigate the extent to which local hospital data collection and indicator computation strategies differ and how this affects the plausibility of self-reported indicator scores, using survey results of 42 hospitals and data of the Dutch national quality database.
The data collection and indicator computation strategies of the hospitals were substantially heterogenic.
Having one entity responsible for the data collection and indicator computation increases the comparability of the hospitals performance scores.
Particularly as governmental (DHTP) regulation regarding the data sources and the software systems that should be used for data collection and indicator computation is still lacking.

We understood a tool to be a collection of indicators used as an instrument for collecting information about a particular aspect of the performance of maternity care, and if it was defined as a tool by the authors of the publication in question.
