CDC’s View: How ATHN and CDC Fit Together ATHN Data Summit August 1, 2008 Presenter: Roshni Kulkarni, M.D.
HTC, CDC, ATHN Q&A • Who owns the data? • Patients and their respective Hemophilia Treatment Centers (HTC’s) • Who controls the data in the database • Patients consent for data to be released to ATHN and CDC • HTC though affiliation with ATHN and cooperative agreement with CDC • What is CDC’s role? • Continue congressionally mandated public health research that includes prevalence, incidence, blood safety, mortality & morbidity of various blood disorders • Will cooperative agreements to do surveillance of bleeding and clotting disorders with regions directors/HTC continue?? • Yes, the cooperative agreement is a congressional requirement
Why does CDC support ATHN? • Desire to support groups that help build the national information technology (IT) infrastructure – PRESIDENTIAL MANDATE! • CDC values external partners and private/public partnerships • Assist with the expansion of the research capacity of the HTC network • Collaborate with ATHN to broaden the scope of research from clinical to public health/prevention. • Bottom line: Become an ATHN affiliate!
