✨ Shaping the Future of Healthcare Data✨   Ever wondered how data quality can transform healthcare?   It was an honor to present alongside my colleague Kristina Weishäupl at a recent research lounge, where we shared insights from the QUANTUM project. This initiative is a vital part of the European Health Data Space (EHDS), focusing on the development of a Data Quality and Utility Label.   Our work addresses one of the most pressing questions in healthcare: 👉 How can we evaluate and improve data quality and utility to ensure reliable secondary use? In our talk, we explored the challenges of defining data quality and utility across its multiple dimensions.   Take completeness, for example: Everyone has a general idea of what it means for data to be "complete," but it's actually more complex and can be broken into several dimensions: Completeness: Completeness refers to the degree to which all required information is present in a particular dataset. Capture completeness: Capture completeness refers to the degree to which potential cases have been recorded. Data completeness: Data completeness refers to the degree of data attributes being present in a dataset without reference to specific data values.   As Lighterness et al. highlight: "Despite widespread awareness of the prevalence and potential impacts of poor data quality, best practices for its assessment and improvement are unknown."   By tackling these gaps, QUANTUM aims to bring greater transparency and trust to healthcare data, unlocking its full potential for research, innovation, and patient care.   Thank you to everyone who joined the discussion 🚀 #DataQuality #HealthData #Healthcare #EHDS #QUANTUM

In a modern healthcare system, exchange of clinical data across multiple stakeholders - between healthcare organizations, between providers and patients, and among agencies and governmental entities – is pivotal. Health information standards provide the "backbone" to achieve uniform data interoperability and exchange across multiple heterogeneous systems. This course will introduce various existing and emerging clinical data modeling, terminology and knowledge representation standards that are part of Meaningful Use Regulations, and discuss scenarios and use cases where the standards have been applied for routine clinical practice and research. Through lectures, case studies, midterm, and a final project, students will gain insights into topics such as disease classification systems, health information exchanges, and electronic health records (EHR) interoperability. #HealthcareSystem #SystemsEngineering #HealthData

I started reflecting on my journey with data and analytics since I left management consulting when Rt. Hon. Wes Streeting MP announced the return of the turnaround teams. For CEOs looking to avoid a turnaround team in the next 12 months, I hope my experience and the experience of this incredible panel will prove relevant. Find out why you should be very concerned if you are still being offered one or more dashboards as insights to help improve performance. https://lnkd.in/ejgST4tu

🚨 Darzi Review 2024: Hot Take* Alert #2567 🚨 The latest Darzi Review covers a LOT on the challenges facing our NHS: rising waiting times, housing problems, deteriorating outcomes, and an urgent need for digital transformation. My standout? The mention of OpenSAFELY. 🌐🔬 Lord Darzi correctly recognises NHS has untapped potential when it comes to data, and while programmes like OpenSAFELY are leading the way, there is still so much more to be done. OpenSAFELY has shown what’s possible—securely analysing billions of health records for real-time insights—helping us understand the impact of treatments, guide policy, and improve patient care. OpenSAFELY - “an extraordinary platform” (full quote in screenshot) 💡 The bottom line: Our team is working hard with NHS England and all our users and partners to scale up access. We are builind from a hugely productive pipeline of 180 approved projects, 30 excellent teams and tonnes of acadmic papers and reports…..More to come! *I know , I know - its not hot…..but there were a lot of pages to get through. Hopefully it grabbed your attention amongst the morass of AI generated sludge that populates Linkedin these days!
