1. Chicago Health Atlas
Context, current status, and future work
April 30, 2013
Roderick (Eric) Jones, MPH
Chicago Department of Public Health
2. Session Preview
• What is the Chicago Health Atlas?
• Background:
Contextual factors that play a role in the
collaboration
• Current work:
Getting started, developing matching algorithms,
minimizing reidentification risk
• Challenges and lessons learned:
Deriving meaning and delivering it to people who
can use it
3. Chicago Health Atlas is a . . .
collaboration
• Informatics researchers from multiple
healthcare institutions
• Chicago Regional Extension Center
(CHITREC)
• Chicago Community Trust
• Chicago Department of Public Health
5. Chicago Health Atlas is a . . .
database
• De-identified electronic health record
data for ~1 million Chicagoans
• In-patient and out-patient visits spanning
2006-2011
• Individual patient records matched
across institutions

10. • Public policy and legislation (n=56)
• Health education and awareness (n=45)
• Interventions and programs (n=92)
Healthy Chicago sets goals for. . .
12. Highlights
Infrastructure
• Establish an Office of Epidemiology and
Public Health Informatics
• Expand epidemiology capacity through an
increase in staff and the development of
strategic partnerships with other entities who
use or collect public health data
13. NYC Macroscope
Scientific Advisory Group
• New York City has embarked on a study to
validate population health estimates from its
Primary Care Information Project
• CDPH involvement has lead to collaboration
on developing vision and methodology for
more widespread use of EHR data for public
health
17. Even if we don’t have a mature
HIE or a Regenstrief Institute,
is it possible to . . .
• Leverage existing EHR data,
• Weave together data from multiple
institutions with publicly available data,
• Measure disease burden and care delivered?
18. Process – getting started
• Coordinated IRB approval across multiple
institutions
• Limited to structured data, no free text
• Constrained to adults aged 18-89
• Focus on 606xx zip codes, with known
overlapping care institutions and high
population density
19. Data Dictionary
• Standardized specifications for data
extractions from participating sites
–Demographics
–Vital signs
–Encounter type
–Diagnoses
–Medications
–Laboratory tests
21. How we “Hashed” our Data
One-way hash algorithms take in identifiers and produce a fixed-size output
called a hash value or “message digest”

Java application is run on institution side of firewall,
creates 5 hash IDs depending on availability of last name, first name,
date of birth, gender, Social security number.

23. Two ways to de-identify information
(1) the removal of individual, familial,
household, employer identifiers
(2) a formal determination by a qualified
statistician . . .
Ensuring privacy and
minimizing risk of re-identification
23
24. Determine through “generally accepted
statistical and scientific principles and
methods, that the risk is very small
that the information could be used,
alone or in combination with other
reasonably available information, by
the anticipated recipient to identify the
subject of the information.”

37. Making data available for use
To participating institutions
–Piloting query system
To public
–Chicago Health Atlas website
38. Website work has involved
• Identifying health-related data from
potential partners
• Evaluating need for data-sharing
agreements
• Securing and importing the data
• Developing procedures and best
practices for ongoing integration of data
39. Developing procedures and
best practices
• Public health indicators from City Data Portal
can be viewed for temporal and neighborhood
trends
• Incorporating CDC guidelines for classification
of map categories
• How to make metadata easily accessible to
users
• How to deal with aggregated geographies and
time periods
