We supplemented the questionnaire data with register information on seven core administrative health data elements: use of general practice, hospitalizations, outpatient treatments, psychiatric hospital contacts, drug prescriptions, cause and date of death, and information on personal characteristics 14 (Table 2).
Our study fits the context set by Mandl and Kohane in 2012: 'The IT foundation required for health care is the core set of health data types, the formalization of health care workflows, and encoded knowledge (e.g. practice guidelines, decision-support tools and care plans)' [ 44].
The WADLS and ISD Scotland are validated record linkage systems that routinely link administrative health data from core datasets for the entire population of Western Australia and Scotland, respectively.
The Western Australian Data Linkage System WADLSS) [ 18], which systematically links health data from core administrative databases and has been widely used for population health research, allows a way of examining the consistency of and (secular) trends in Indigenous identification reporting in different data sets.
This enables an existing source of condition monitoring data to be analysed in a rapid and repeatable manner, providing additional information relating to core health on a more regular basis than routine inspection data allows.
Interestingly, Bill of Health has no categorizations for core concepts in this area: privacy, confidentiality, security, health data, HIPAA, health information technology the closest is a symposium on the re-identification of information, held in 2013.
The Western Australian Data Linkage System systematically links administrative health data in Western Australia from core administrative health databases.

The APACHE III-related physiology, diagnostic and chronic health data of admissions from 55 Australian ICUs were extracted from the ANZICS CORE adult patient database (CORE cohort).
I mean, why are we socialising health data at a time when we are also breaking up the core of a socialised healthcare system?
Someone who figures out that activity and health data (and its supporting social networks, HINT HINT) would be extremely valuable insight and make their core product more engaging and fun.
