As someone who works with patient data, this is an exciting prospect. The opportunities to detect potentially harmful trends and improve upon less than optimal pathways of care are tremendous. A governmental ultimatum may also help to diffuse standards for clinical data, or least for how clinical data intended for research is published. But one has to wonder how all of this will work in practice. The greatest de-identification software is still not capable of making anonymous all 17 types of PHI data contained in the medical record with 100% accuracy and likely never will be. And just who are "private organizations" and what will the processes be for access and handling? I hope this isn't a bill sponsored by and for big pharma but the cynic in me can't help but wonder. In any case, this should be an interesting one to follow: http://www.healthdatamanagement.com/html/news/NewsStory.cfm?articleId=15280 Leonard D'Avolio Ph.D. Candidate NLM Medical Informatics Fellow Dept. of Information Studies Dept. of Medical Informatics University of California, Los Angeles http://polaris.gseis.ucla.edu/ldavolio From casmith24 at wisc.edu Mon Jun 11 15:16:03 2007 From: casmith24 at wisc.edu (Catherine Arnott Smith) Date: Mon, 11 Jun 2007 15:16:03 -0400 Subject: [Sigmed-l] Opening Medicare Data for Research - new legislation In-Reply-To: <200706111735.l5BHZfaL024166@mail.mii.ucla.edu> References: <200706111735.l5BHZfaL024166@mail.mii.ucla.edu> Message-ID: <466D9F73.5030001@wisc.edu> Leonard Davolio wrote: > The greatest de-identification software is > still not capable of making anonymous all 17 types of PHI data contained in > the medical record with 100% accuracy and likely never will be.

The quotations are there not because I don't agree these are good goals, but because I question how much "choice" really exists even with available "information". Then there's the other problem--discussed at length at Spring AMIA--that the reason hardly anybody has Personal Health Records is that hardly anybody has electronic medical records on which to build. So even if the data could be hypothetically cleaned up to HIPAA's satisfaction (you are right-100% accuracy is impossible)--we're still only going to be looking at clinical data that is available digitally, which ain't the medical record for most places. (Mayo, Kaiser, Partners in Boston excepted, for example). Now clinical data mining could happen easier than medical record mining, but clinical data mining is digging in lots of big silos. So I'm not sure what good this all does anybody. -- Catherine Arnott Smith, PhD Assistant Professor School of Library and Information Studies Room 4263 Helen C. White Hall 600 N.

See for its remit and membership. The main immediate task of IRC is, in brief, to submit to the Board an international strategy to expand the society's international presence, membership and activities There are 2 key requirements for this strategy to be successful. First if should reflect the vision and aspirations of ASIS&T members. Second it should be supported by the active involvement of all bodies of the society and the members who are engaged in international activities. We would therefore appreciate if all SIGs and Chapters (including student chapters) would make sure that they maintain a liaison with IRC. Once appointed the liaison will have access to the IRC list and wiki with a view to facilitate a two way interaction. We urge all members who have regular membership in sister societies whether international or national to let us know and share their views about the ways to establish effective cooperation between these societies and ASIS&T. We would very much appreciate your views about the items below: 1) What should ASIS&T do in order for its members to be more connected with, contribute to and be visible in the international Information Science and Technology arena ? 2) What should ASIS&T do in order to increase its international membership, how can US members benefit more from international members, how can international members benefit more from their membership, how can US and international members develop more beneficial interaction ? 3) What is required in order to make the global system of information science societies and their activities (e.g. regular conferences, publications, representation in scientific and policy fora, etc.) more effective in responding to the needs of information scholars and professionals ? 4) What should ASIS&T do in order to enhance its profile and participation in the global system of information science societies and activities ? 5) Any other relevant item Please keep in mind that proposals need to be financially and operationally realistic. Send your contributions to michel[dot]menou[at]wanadoo[dot]fr and not to the list from which you received this message. We look forward to hearing from you. Thank you in advance.
