New Epidemiogical Databases Show ER and Outpatient Activity
CUPERTINO, Calif. -- Timely Data Resources, Inc. has just released the Emergency Room Database (The ER) and is beta testing the Hospital Outpatient Database (The HOP). These new database will show hard-to-track ER and outpatient activities like medications prescribed, diagnostic tests and procedures, providers seen, payment and more.
The ER and HOP complement the existing line of web-based databases that Timely Data Resources, Inc. already publishes: the Incidence and Prevalence Database (The IPD) and the Hospital Inpatient Profile (The HIP) at www.tdrdata.com.
Dr. Robert Weissberg, president of Timely Data Resources, Inc., feels that the ER and HOP will help make this Web site (www.tdrdata.com) the first stop for any healthcare professional who is taking a look at a disease or procedure.
Timely Data Resources, Inc. has provided epidemiological databases and primary market research to healthcare professionals since 1989.
