LOINC and Health Data Standards at Regenstrief Institute has received a $4.4 million grant from the Regenstrief Foundation to support expansion of work on a global initiative to categorize and standardize social determinants of health (SDOH) information into electronic health records (EHRs), an ambitious project to integrate social needs data into clinical care to more effectively address health inequities.
The Regenstrief Institute releases new worldwide health measurement standards, while ONC offers help with a looming Cures Act deadline and signs The Sequoia Project to a new contract to coordinate TEFCA's next five years.
The work is meant to promote closer and more coordinated use of SNOMED CT and Regenstrief's LOINC terminologies, helping improve health data exchange and reduce duplication.
