INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. (Inside INdiana Business) – Indianapolis-based Regenstrief Institute has created a data dashboard to support COVID-19 tracking and response in Indiana. The institute says the dashboard complements Indiana’s existing information by providing data on patients’ course of care through healthcare systems in Indiana.

Regenstrief says access to the data, along with expert interpretation, will allow health professionals to identify patterns and better predict how to respond as COVID-19 cases spread across the state. The data dashboard relays information regarding the impact on Hoosiers and the healthcare system.

“This data is a key component to helping state leaders make critical decisions at crucial times during this crisis. The expertise and resources of our partners brought this concept to fruition,” said Dr. Connor Norwood, chief data officer for the Indiana Family Social Services Administration and data leader for the state’s COVID-19 response team.

The Indiana State Department of Health, Indiana Family Social Services Administration, and the Indiana Management Performance Hub, among others, have partnered with Regenstrief on the project. The partnerships allow the dashboard to harness data from the majority of Indiana’s health systems.

“These critical data visualizations and tools were developed thanks to the extensive data assets, connectivity, expertise and longstanding collaborations we have in Indiana,” said Dr. Peter Embí, Regenstrief president and chief executive officer.
