The FinHITS project comprises nine work packages:
- Work packages 1–4 cover project management: coordination, dissemination, evaluation and sustainability.
- Work packages 5–9 form the core of the project and produce its main results.
Project management
Work package 1: Coordination
We manage and coordinate the project along with its implementation, including monitoring and reporting.
Work package 2: Dissemination
We communicate project results and deliverables through dissemination campaigns, education and training. In addition, we develop the service desk to offer better services for international data users and stakeholders.
Work package 3: Evaluation
We assess whether we are achieving our objectives by establishing and monitoring performance indicators.
Work package 4: Sustainability
We ensure the implementation and maintenance of digital capabilities after the project.
Core packages
Work package 5: Data access application management system
We develop Findata’s e-service to be integrated with the Data Resources Catalogue, which allows applicants to describe the data and extractions they need and to select data sets.
Work package 6: National dataset catalogue for health data
We improve the National dataset catalogue (Data Resources Catalogue) for health data, focusing especially on international users.
Work package 7: Secure processing environment for health data
We strengthen our secure processing environment by improving capacities and management and developing user-friendly automated tools to facilitate anonymisation of the results and the verification of anonymity.
Work package 8: Cross-border gateway
We take part in developing a technical solution for the cross-border transfer of health data for secondary use, making use of the outcomes of the HealthData@EU Pilot (ehds2pilot.eu).
Work package 9: Data quality
We provide solutions and instructions to improve the quality of health data. We will produce two ready-made datasets and update the national guidelines and instructions on data descriptions where necessary.
