EMR's to OMOP is ARDC funded project that runs from 2021 - 2023. https://ardc.edu.au/project/electronic-medical-records-as-a-national-data-asset/
Hospital EMR data as a National Data Asset for Research (10.47486/PS014): This project aims to establish a national, research ready hospital electronic medical record (EMR) Data Asset that will enhance data accessibility for rapid interrogation and evidence generation. Data will be transformed to an international gold standard Observational Medical Outcomes Partnership (OMOP) Common Data Model (CDM).
Tools, mappings and experience gained will be made openly available, and a community of practice and a roadmap for continued national implementation will be built. The Data Asset will significantly improve the quality, accessibility and feasibility of EMR data warehouses by streamlining data governance, consent and ethics. The project’s outcome is a CDM platform, converting three Cerner-based data warehouses: Queensland Health ( State Public Health Hospital EMR), Austin Health and Western Health (Melbourne EMR). Learnings from the Cerner conversions will then be applied to the conversion of other data warehouse platforms including the EPIC EMR system which will be investigated in collaboration with the Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre.
