The quality and breadth of information collected into existing databases varies tremendously between databases between institutions and between national boundaries. The field of critical care medicine could be advanced substantially by the development of comprehensive and accurate databases. Accurate and comprehensive healthcare data are vitally important for a variety of purposes as clearly stated in the newly released article examining diagnostic coding in intensive care patients 1 . These data may be used for local assessments or evaluations within a healthcare system such as for specific outpatient conditions or inpatient hospital events. The data may also be used regionally or nationally for assessing performance within or across healthcare systems. Also while comparisons become enormously difficult administrative data may be used for comparing across national boundaries to assess international differences in healthcare and disease. Administrative healthcare databases are uniquely suited to epidemiological studies of disease particularly for studying the incidence or outcome of rare diseases that are impossible to study locally or within traditional cohort studies 2 . Such data are also uniquely suited to understanding secular trends in disease .
