Do programmes often get sufficient and representative data to measure outcomes?

Do programmes often get sufficient and representative data to measure outcomes?
It was mentioned in module 2 that short-term outcomes are measured within 6 months to 1 year after programme implementation, intermediate outcomes are measured within 1-2 years after programme implementation, and long-term outcomes are measured after a long time (no definitive time given). Even barring long-term outcomes, it would mean reaching out to participants of the programme about half a year, a year and two years after their participation in the programme. Do any organisation actually track and measure the outcomes a year or two after programme implementation, and what is the percentages of participants that usually contribute the data after a year on? Also, I was wondering, if only a small percentage of participants actually contribute their data a year or two on, how accurate will the outcome results be in evaluating whether the programme meets its objectives?
