UNMC and Nebraska hospitals to share data for better treatments

LINCOLN, Neb. (KLKN) — Through data sharing with UNMC researchers, Nebraska hospitals are hoping to provide better patient care.

According to the Nebraska Examiner, the data sharing will allow researchers at the University of Nebraska Medical Center to learn what treatments work best with certain sections of the population.

Health officials say the data collected would be from claims sent by hospitals to health insurance companies and will not identify any patients.
