Combining deterministic and probabilistic matching to reduce data linkage errors in hospital administrative data
ABSTRACT Objectives Data linkage algorithms are used to link together multiple episodes of care belonging to the same patient. For example, the HESID algorithm is used to generate Hospital Episode Statistics (HES) in England. HESID is a deterministic algorithm, requiring identifiers to agree or dis...
