Electronic Health Records Help Researchers Harness Data
New initiatives funded by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act and managed by AHRQ’s Effective Health Care Program are establishing how electronic health records connected to shared databases can be used by scientists to conduct comparative effectiveness research (CER). The Electronic Data Methods Forum was established to advance knowledge on use of electronic clinical data to conduct CER, improve quality, and develop clinical decision support systems. National experts commissioned by the Forum have authored articles featured in a special supplement of this month’s issue of Medical Care. Articles address the challenges of building infrastructure for CER with electronic clinical data. Obstacles and opportunities related to the three domains of analytic methods, clinical informatics, and data governance are highlighted. The analytic methods papers address challenges on how to assess data quality and approaches to developing cohorts for CER studies. The clinical informatics papers examine the capabilities and limitations of different informatics platforms to perform CER and practical considerations when using new clinical informatics approaches for CER. Articles on data governance address approaches to protect patients’ confidentiality and privacy and to facilitate multisite Institutional Review Board approval for CER.
