Tuesday, November 3, 2015: 10:30 a.m. - 12:00 p.m.

Public health analytics depend on high quality data from EMRs, but the methodologies and tools can take various forms. From using Twitter to track health seeking behavior in mental health, to differentiating between Hepatitis B prevalence in Asian versus Chinese-born populations, this session will explore various challenges to public health analytics, and how various jurisdictions have solved these problems.
Session Objectives: Discuss the various challenges associated with using HIT to inform public health analytics, and give examples of how some of these challenges are being met in real time.
