Strategy A3: Data Modernizaton the Kentucky Department for Public Health (KDPH) Must Modernize Department-Wide Health Information Technology (Hit) to Enable Quick, Informed, and Scalable Responses to Public Health Issues and Emergencies. Previously Identified Weaknesses and Gaps in the Infrastructure Have Been Exacerbated by the COVID-19 Pandemic. The Existing Infrastructure Is Largely Siloed in Kentucky: The Varied Surveillance and Data Management Systems and Data Streams Do Not Interface with One Another, Few of the Data Processes Are Automated and Data Flow Primarily Occurs in Only One Direction. These Three Factors Have Necessitated Significant Staff Time Managing, Merging and Manually Entering Data. Many of These Efforts Are Duplicative and Unsynchronized. Finally, KDPH Mines Only a Small Portion of the Available Data - Incorporating Those Other Data Sources Into Routine Practice Would Significantly Enhance Meaningful Use.
