Additional information: The elements in the Health Business Information Base are designed to cover all aspects of healthcare, from patient data to hospital administration. They include anonymised personal and medical data, which contain aggregated data with personal identifiers removed to protect patient privacy. Diagnosis, treatment, and prescription elements provide detailed information about a patient's health status and care plan. Medical imaging and laboratory elements cover diagnostic procedures, while vaccination and dispensation elements provide data on administered vaccines and dispensed medicines. Hospital administrative and Enterprise Resource Planning elements deal with the management and organisation of healthcare facilities. Other elements like patient real-time location, eligibility, and vital signs provide additional patient-specific data. The base also includes information on clinical trials, medical products, health statistics, and health professionals.
Example: For instance, the 'Diagnosis' element would contain specific details related to a patient's symptoms, anamnesis, etc. The 'Operating theatre' element would include information about the management and organisation of complex surgery operations. The 'Vaccination' element would contain aggregated data about administered vaccines and their effects on patients' health. The 'Prescription' element would contain information about a healthcare provider's written authorization for a patient to purchase a prescription drug from a pharmacist.
