Web Seminar Center
Available On-Demand
Date Held: October 1, 2008
Data analytics will drive the next generation of improvements in clinical and quality performance. However, finding the details of patient stories requires access to their medical records and reports and HIPAA requires protection of patient privacy when aggregating data for mining or sharing.
Simply removing personal health information can reduce the data value of a note; value-added de-identification replaces personal health information with tags that retain data integrity and temporal sequences.
Find out how organizations, such as the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center and the National Cancer Institute, are using value -added de-identification as a compliance solution for data mining for clinical and quality research.
JOIN THIS SESSION TO LEARN:
1. What are the HIPAA considerations when setting up data repositories for clinical and quality research
2. The differences in de-identification methodologies
3. Approaches to managing data for research.
4. How hospitals and other healthcare organizations are using de-identified data to realize a vision for 21st century healthcare
Every participant will be eligible to receive an RFP for a grant of a project license to install and use DE-IDTM de-identification software for one year. The project license will include technical support for installation and quality assurance.
