5051.0 Grid-enabled Computing: Data Sharing Between Public Health and Clinical Care

Wednesday, November 11, 2009: 8:30 AM
Oral
Data sharing between clinical practice and public health will result in the identification of patterns that inform prevention and ultimately mitigate the impact of outbreaks. Public health departments can play a key role in helping clinicians make these connections as HIEs are developed. This session will provide a status update.
Session Objectives: *Discuss the potential roles of local health departments in developing health information exchange systems. *Describe how online, web-based surveys are applied and implemented in the public health research.
