摘要：	This report presents the findings of a project conducted to investigate the feasibility of an automated national data-management system for collecting and disseminating highway tort claims information. Data items from the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) Survey on the Status of Sovereign Immunity in the States were selected for the basis of design and construction of the core data elements within the model system. Five pilot states were selected to provide a representative sample of tort claims processing systems in use on a national level. The findings suggest that a national tort data-management system could be technically feasible if the following conditions can be met: (1) appropriate time, state personnel involvement, and access permission to perform a full data audit and assessment on states internal information systems; (2) changes to the state systems to include data items not being recorded, a standard identification code for tracking case information throughout departments and agencies, and internal initiatives to improve the data entry process within their own systems; (3) begin with a dynamic data standard designed to become more unified and common through an evolutionary process; (4) utilize a single contract agency to perform the data audit and information system assessment and to design and develop the national data-management system; and (5) commitments of financial resources by participating state departments of transportation. / NOTE: Final rept. / Supplementary Notes: Prepared in cooperation with Pennsylvania Transportation Inst., University Park.
