EPIC, can now offer access to international patient data through our Cegedim Strategic Data (CSD) medical research team in Paris. CSD collects primary care data from clinicians using electronic practice management software from France, Italy, Germany, Belgium, Australia, Czech Republic and recently Spain & Korea.

 
Socioeconomic and Environmental Indicators

Most patients in THIN Data are linked to postcode-level area-based socioeconomic, ethnicity and environmental indices. The data are based on the patient’s postcode so that variables at ward level are available. This information has been collected for THIN without compromising patient confidentiality in any way.
