Proposed Project: Public Input to Nominate Non-Federal Health and Health Care Data Sets and Applications for Listing on Healthdata.gov-OMB No. 0990-NEW-Immediate Office of the Secretary, Office of the Chief Technology Officer.
Abstract: The Department of Health and Human Services is promoting the use of health and health care datasets that are not specific to individual's personal health information to improve decision making by individuals, organizations, and governments through better understanding of the data. Federal agencies are making health indicator datasets (data that is not associated with any individuals) and tools available for use by the public through a web portal community known as healthdata.gov or http://www.data.gov/health. These datasets and tools are anticipated to benefit development of applications, web-based tools, and other electronic resources improve community action for health and health care. The development of tools, reference sets, dashboards, and electronic data visualization methods serve to provide context and understanding to complex health and health care data.
To broaden the type and amount of data available for these purposes, HHS is soliciting public input on nominations of non-Federal health and health data indicator datasets and applications using them to improve health and health data. For example, health indicator datasets representing surveys conducted by state government or private organizations may be considered as high-value datasets among researchers, applications developers, and others.
