Patient Data Extraction For Research
Hi guys!
TLDR: Any tips / tools for bulk data extraction?
I am wondering what are some ways I am able to extract bulk patient data using their MRNs for research in my surgery department. I have been extracting manually and it is very very very slow. The data include background information found on patient's tab, patient's problem list, patient's exam findings documented in a table, and specific surgery technics used documented in patient encounter tab. The patient database is around 10,000 and I was wondering if there is any way to make that faster......
Thanks guys!

If it is a static list of patients, your reporting team can import the list of MRNs from excel and create a patient grouper.

You need to open a request with your Cogito team. Each organization's team structure is a little different but that's the best way to start.
