OVERVIEW: The National Center for Data to Health (CD2H) was established in 2017 to accelerate advancements in informatics by using findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable (FAIR) principles to promote collaboration across the Clinical and Translational Science Awards (CTSA) Program community. 

GOALS: The goal of SC CTSI participation in CD2H is to facilitate the incorporation of social and environmental determinants of health into electronic health records for use in clinical research and predictive analytics.

CURRENT STATUS: SC CTSI has been selected by CD2H to lead a project in phase III to develop a tool that will use FHIR to integrate social environmental determinants of health into CERNER for wider uptake by CD2H in phase IV.
