Learning health system linchpins: information exchange and a common data model.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

To demonstrate the potential for a centrally managed health information exchange standardized to a common data model (HIE-CDM) to facilitate semantic data flow needed to support a learning health system (LHS).

Materials and methods

The Rhode Island Quality Institute operates the Rhode Island (RI) statewide HIE, which aggregates RI health data for more than half of the state's population from 47 data partners. We standardized HIE data to the Observational Medical Outcomes Partnership (OMOP) CDM. Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) risk and primary prevention practices were selected to demonstrate LHS semantic data flow from 2013 to 2023.

Results

We calculated longitudinal 10-year ASCVD risk on 62,999 individuals. Nearly two-thirds had ASCVD risk fa
