Abstrakt: Background: The Fukuoka-City Information Platform for Community-based Integrated Care is an advanced big data platform that aggregates information on the health and medical services of Fukuoka citizens. Fukuoka City is engaged in a joint project with Kyushu University to promote policy making through a large-scale real-world data analysis. This paper describes the framework for this cooperative effort and the features of the analytical platform.
Methods: Fukuoka City is the fifth most populous ordinance-designated city in Japan, with an estimated population of approximately 1.6 million. Under an agreement with Fukuoka City, Kyushu University was granted access to a portion of the city's anonymized healthcare database as secondary-use information. The database contains information on resident registration, health insurance claims, specific health checkups and health checkups for the older adults, specific health guidance, long-term care insurance data, and cancer screenings collected after fiscal year 2012. Each of these constituent datasets can be interlinked using anonymized hashed key variables, allowing individuals to be followed across databases and over time.
Conclusions: The platform allows longitudinal investigation of the complex association between various aspects of healthcare, such as medical procedures, examinations, interviews, medical costs, long-term care certifications, and care costs. The platform can provide valuable public-health information because it is relatively large for a single database, and because it allows analysis of data across multiple domains and tracing of individuals over time.
Competing Interests: TN received a commissioned research fund for the Fukuoka City health promotion policy. TN is a member of the Fukuoka 100 Project Promotion Council of Fukuoka City. DY is a member of the Liaison Conference on Specific Health Checkups and Specific Health Guidance. The other authors have no competing interests to declare.
