Accessing Data through DASH
Are you a researcher seeking administrative health data from more than one province or territory in Canada? HDRN Canada’s Data Access Support Hub (DASH) offers coordinated services to researchers interested in accessing multi-regional datasets. Learn how DASH can help you navigate the data access process as well as the centralized services and tools available for researchers conducting research projects in more than one region, including:
- the single data access request form for researchers to request data from multiple regions
- support from experts at data centres across Canada
- an inventory of all the datasets available via HDRN Canada and
- an algorithm inventory to aid in analysis of the data.
