Data Governance Frameworks

Meaning

Data Governance Frameworks are structured sets of policies, procedures, and organizational structures designed to manage the availability, usability, integrity, and security of all clinical and operational data within a healthcare setting. These frameworks establish clear accountability for data quality and ensure compliance with regulatory standards like HIPAA and GDPR. They are essential for leveraging complex patient data, such as longitudinal hormonal profiles, for personalized treatment while maintaining patient trust. A robust framework supports accurate clinical decision-making and ethical data utilization.
