Open-source educational tools to make health data accessible and understandable for all
Health data is invaluable for improving health, yet most individuals are unfamiliar with what it is or how to use it. A shocking 41% of individuals have never viewed their health data.
Health Data Basics is a set of tools designed to increase an individual’s understanding, engagement, and use of health data. It is led by FasterCures in collaboration with GoInvo and an advisory panel. The initial prototype development was funded by the Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI).
