Update: Dignity Health has resolved their extended data delay and there are now visits in ESSENCE up to December 03, 2021. However, please note that we are expecting their visit data to consistently have a 2-3 day delay moving forward. Meaning, if today is a Wednesday we can expect to have Dignity visits through Sunday or Monday's visit dates. 

The target for Dignity Health to transition to a new, more reliable public health reporting solution is during Quarter 1 of 2022. We will continue to work with them to improve their reporting timeliness until that transition occurs.
