- Public
Health Information Network (PHIN)
Currently there are multiple systems in place that support
communications for public health labs, the clinical community,
and state and local health departments. Each has demonstrated
the importance of being able to exchange health information.
However, many of these systems operate in isolation, not
capitalizing on the potential for a cross-fertilization
of data exchange. The Public Health Information Network
(PHIN) is a crosscutting and unifying framework which is
needed to better monitor these data streams for early detection
of public health issues and emergencies.
- National
Electronic Disease Surveillance System (NEDSS)
The
National Electronic Disease Surveillance System (NEDSS)
is an initiative that promotes the use of data and information
system standards to advance the development of efficient,
integrated, and interoperable surveillance systems at federal,
state and local levels.
