The 3x3 NELS objectives were to assess the administrative data quality and generate quality indicators for palliative and end of life care in Nova Scotia. Databases for this linkage study were provided by the Diabetes Care Program of Nova Scotia (DCPNS), the Cardiovascular Health Nova Scotia (CVHNS), the Surveillance and Epidemiology Unit (SEU) of Cancer Care Nova Scotia (CCNS), and palliative care programs (PCP) in three district health authorities (DHA): Colchester East Hants, Capital Health, and Cape Breton, all linked to the Nova Scotia Vital Statistics (NSVS).
