What Challenges are Associated with Implementing a Minimum Data Set?
Despite its benefits, implementing an MDS can pose several challenges:
Data Privacy: Ensuring the confidentiality and security of the collected data. Resource Constraints: Limited resources for data collection, storage, and analysis. Interoperability: Ensuring that the data can be integrated and compared across different systems and settings. Compliance: Ensuring that all involved parties adhere to the standardized protocols. Training: Providing adequate training to data collectors and users on the MDS protocols.
