Abstract

Health Information Network: collaboration and partnership striving to improve the access to health information in the UK

 

In 2004 a group of UK health care database compilers explored the benefits of establishing an informal forum. By 2005 this federation became Health Information Network UK, with eight founder members: AMED; BNI; Child data; DH Data; HMIC; HSWE, MIDIRS and SCIE. The presentation explores how the federation is aiming to meet its objectives of delivering quality UK health care information without duplication or gaps and of strengthening the position of the small independent database producer.

 

Presented with Jill Beard
