Promises and Challenges: Automated Extraction of Electronic Health Record Data
Perhaps you’re interested in using data from electronic health records (EHRs) for your research, but you find it difficult to manually locate, extract, and combine these data. Technology promises to someday automate this process, but the lack of standards across the industry creates challenges.
Attend this webinar to learn how researchers are addressing these challenges and making progress in extracting and using data from EHRs.
You’ll learn about:
- options for extracting EHR data,
- examples of how you can use these data for research, and
- lessons learned to help you identify, extract, and use EHR data.
This webinar is part of the Childhood Cancer Data Initiative webinar series, which highlights how to use CCDI’s web applications, platforms, and data, and gives attendees the opportunity to learn how to use available resources.
