Does your organisation have an effective Data Governance program? How would you measure and assess the program? Using cases studies, this workshop will highlight key issues in designing, implementing and maintaining a Data Governance program in healthcare organisations.

Workshop 3 - Data Governance: safely providing quality information for quality care
Fiona Watson

How do we achieve the right balance between the appropriate use of information to support high quality care, whilst safeguarding information confidentiality?     Access to information must be based on legitimate reasons and be in the interests of the patient. The workshop will discuss this further, focussing on areas of quality of care, risk management and consumer involvement, using case study examples of where things have gone wrong. Find out and discuss the improvement strategies and also the legal do's and don'ts.
