HEOR (health economics and outcomes research) and EHR data UW CHOICE Institute and Truveta partner to advance research

The Comparative Health Outcomes, Policy, and Economics (CHOICE) Institute at the University of Washington’s School of Pharmacy has partnered with Truveta to use its electronic health record (EHR) data to drive comparative, cost-effectiveness, and outcomes research.

Researchers at The CHOICE Institute will use Truveta Data to gain access to real-world EHR data from a growing collective of 30 health systems across the country. The CHOICE team will use these data to generate insights across various therapeutic areas, including diabetes, dementia, sickle cell disease, pain management, cystic fibrosis, hepatitis C, and others. Researchers will study the intersection between health policy, chronic disease management, and cognition; the value of care for conditions influencing healthy aging; vaccinations; antibiotic use; location of care; patient reimbursement; health econometrics and comparative effectiveness; and more.

Truveta offers the most complete, timely, and clean EHR data from more than 100 million patients across 30 US health systems, empowering researchers to study all diseases, drugs, and devices. Truveta Data is representative of inpatient and outpatient care from over 900 hospitals and 20,000 clinics.

Truveta Data is updated daily for the most current view of patient care. By providing a complete, timely view of the patient journey, including clinical notes and medical images, Truveta enables researchers to study comparative and cost effectiveness of therapies and outcomes for representative populations.

Truveta Studio allows researchers to explore research questions and create new studies and conduct subsequent internally or grant-funded research. Researchers can quickly iterate study design and feasibility, with the ability to modify inclusion and exclusion criteria in real time for representative and precise populations, including underrepresented communities and those with rare diseases.
