Data Governance

Catalog description

In informatics, the flow and protection of health data is critically important. HIPAA compliance, risk-benefit analysis, regulations, clinical workflow, and legal policies must all be considered. In this course, students will explore real-life scenarios and case studies to equip students to build their own data governance team, define and communicate clear processes for receiving and evaluating data requests, recognize potential ethical or legal issues, and create external partnerships for the public good.
