The committee drives improvements required to underpin an effective learning health system across MACH partner hospitals, with a focus on developing processes and frameworks to facilitate the re-use of routinely collected clinical data for secondary purposes. The Data-Driven Healthcare Improvement committee has been reshaped to steer the Data to Knowledge activities within the University of Melbourne Centre for Digital Transformation of Health. The committee has breadth of expertise in informatics and computing, plus representation from groups undertaking similar work at MACH partner hospitals. A Data Users Reference Group comprising clinicians and researchers provide support as required.
