After you have formulated your request, complete your application and include Attachment D (Data Element Request Form) and send it to apcd@hca.wa.gov.

II. Review your Application with the LO

We recommend that you schedule a meeting with LO staff. Prior to the meeting, the LO staff will screen your application and data element request form to ensure that all fields are complete and that you are seeking the appropriate data for your project.

III. Data Request Processing

After completion of all relevant data request forms and attachments the LO will follow up to discuss any outstanding questions and will prepare your application materials for committee review. The LO will provide the applicant with the following, as applicable: committee review date, cost estimate, and public comment period schedule. You can learn more about the review process on our How We Review & Process WA-APCD Data Requests page.

IV. Final Steps for Approved Requests

If your data request is approved, you will be required to execute all relevant data release forms. Once finalized and signed by both you and all required parties, the LO will initiate the product development/data release phase and receive payment from you. You can expect to receive your WA-APCD data approximately 30 days after a contract has been signed.
