HaHP2: Central Data Repository
The IT-based Central Data Repository (CDR), successfully developed in Phase 1 of Have a Heart Paisley, plays an important role in Phase 2.
Drawing on population data, services can be directed to those most in need and the CDR will work as a powerful public health tool in helping to address health inequalities relating to life circumstances.
The CDR will enable multi-practice audits to examine equity between population groups as well as between practices.
