Answer:
De-identified patient data is a process used to remove certain identifiers from a patient’s health record.
Explanation:
De-identified patient data contains the health information of a patient and it modifies the patient's identified data.
Three possible ways enable us to de-identifies patient's data such as;
- The first option is the “safe harbor” and this enables the user to remove all 18 identified data of a patient.
- Second is the "statistical option" and it maintains the important data among the 18 identified data's and it prevents the risk of data to be re-identified.
- Third is the "limited data set" option in which the organization removes the 16 identified data and protects the remaining data with high-security services.
