11-20-2024 Podcast - Data Dictionary: A Searchable Environment of Healthcare Data Definitions
When people hear “Data Dictionary,” they often think of basic fields and definitions. But we’re not about doing things in the standard way - innovation is our team’s hallmark.
This system indeed includes the typical data dictionary functionality, but it goes far beyond that. It offers customized searches and filtering options, administrative capabilities for editing, and the ability to show or hide tables. Additionally, it calculates the number of rows in each table in real time, so users can see exactly what’s available and the fields are semantically re-defined.
The system also supports hotlinking and tagging, enabling users to easily click on an NGS (Next-Generation Sequencing) group and instantly view relevant information. You can even tag applications, allowing you to see all the data stored within a specific app. This robust, flexible platform offers a level of control and functionality that goes beyond what people are typically used to in data dictionaries.
