Description of Collaborative Activity: |
NLM is collaborating with the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC) and AHRQ under the auspices of ONC's S&I Framework. This initiative will develop and validate a standards-based data architecture so that a structured set of data can be accessed from EHRs and be stored for merger with comparable data for other purposes, including: electronic Case Report Form (eCRF) used for clinical research including Patient Centered Outcomes Research (PCOR); Incident Report used for patient safety reporting leveraging AHRQ ‘Common Formats’; and Surveillance Case Report Form used for public health reporting of infectious diseases. |
