The Data Alliance Partnership Board is an ORGANISATION.
The Data Alliance Partnership Board (DAPB) replaced the Data Coordination Board (DCB) on 20 November 2020.
Key national ORGANISATIONS that use health and care data were brought together into a Data Alliance Partnership (DAP). The Data Alliance Partnership member ORGANISATIONS are committed to maximising the benefits from utilising and sharing data already held in health and care systems in order to minimise the burden of collecting more data from frontline service providers.
The Data Alliance Partnership Board (DAPB) supports member ORGANISATIONS achieve its goals and:
- Identifies and, wherever possible, reduces duplication of data collections
- Increases the benefits from data already held by making data accessible for legitimate purposes within existing legislation – the principle of collect once, use many times
- Increases transparency by making clear what data the health and care system holds and how it is used – be published as a single list of approved data collections
- Has responsibility for approving Information Standard and Collection (including Extractions) (ISCEs) used in health and adult social care.
Note: The Data Alliance Partnership Sub Board (DAPSB) has replaced the Data Coordination Sub Board (DCSB). The Data Alliance Partnership Sub Board has devolved responsibility for scrutiny and approval of recommendations made by the Data Standards Assurance Service (DSAS) on proposals for new and/or changes to Information Standard and Collection (including Extractions).
