The Self-service Data Platform offered by the HA Data Collaboration Laboratory (HADCL) of the Hospital Authority (HA) was introduced in March 2020 with an aim to enable researchers from Universities to draft hypothesis and proposals, and conduct research studies by using the high-quality sample data and an advanced statistical analytic platform, Statistical Analysis System (SAS), provided. Researchers can make use of SAS in HADCL to draw inspiration for health big data research from the sample data by themselves.
The sample data is composed of structured data from around 200,000 patients randomly selected from the patient populations of 2007 and 2017, stratified by age and gender, which include:
