Sessional Dates of Appointment: _Fall 2025, September to December_

***:
**Course Title: MHI2023H - Data Governance in Health Informatics**:
**Course Description**:
Data are increasingly being collected digitally throughout our healthcare system. New sources and uses of data could help improve patient outcomes, lower health system costs, and improve health care provider productivity. They also present challenges:

- New types of data, (e.g., from DNA testing) may increase risk to privacy.
- For machine learning and artificial intelligence to work properly, data needs to be centralized, sometimes from multiple jurisdictions, to achieve sample sizes appropriate for training algorithms. This creates challenges with data security and data flows (due to legislative restrictions). Further, data science approaches to analyses challenge current data minimization principles.
- Many entities would like to monetize health data or use them for commercial purposes. The public are uneasy over this. Commercial interests must be balanced with public interests.
- Governments and payers want access to data to develop better policies and allocate resources more effectively.
- Healthcare organizations will need to share data more frequently to provide care to complex patients whose needs cannot be met by a single entity.
- Patients are increasingly asking for access to their data for personal use.

Current policies and mechanisms for data sharing cannot meet these challenges. Nor are there simple solutions to address these challenges.

- Identify the multiple objectives served by data governance
