Submit Facility Utilization Data (SIERA)
Welcome to the SIERA Utilization reporting system!
The System of Integrated Electronic Reporting and Auditing (SIERA) is HCAI’s report collection enterprise system for facility utilization information. The report was previously submitted via the ALIRTS reporting system. Beginning with the 2018 Annual Utilization Report, utilization reports will be submitted exclusively on the SIERA system. SIERA provides health facilities to easily submit annual utilization reports, view and revise submitted annual utilization reports, and view facility and license information.
