The main goal of B.R.I.D.G.E. is to profile databases from around the world with the most current information. Although we try to include as many profiles as possible, we unfortunately cannot profile every database. We work with each database manager to ensure their database profile is complete and accurate, as well as receive explicit permission for their database to be listed. Some reasons for declined participation are time constraints, non-commercial interests, and information disclosure restrictions.

Based on user requests, we have updated the search logic for the “Drug Data” criterion. When you choose 'Yes' for the “Drug Data” field, all the database profiles with the following search results will appear as a 100% match:

• Yes
• Yes: Prescription & OTC
• Yes: Prescription only
• Yes: OTC only

We hope you will find this feature useful and continue sharing your user experiences with us!

We are happy to include eMAX Health EMR Claims+ (USA) to our compendium of database profiles. This database integrates EMR details with longitudinal claims for complete patient follow-up including lab results. The EMRClaims+ database is derived through contracted payer, provider, and specialty pharmacy networks in order to provide comprehensive data on healthcare service and all aspects of clinical care for currently over 20 million patients treated in the Midwest region of the United States during the period from 1988 to present.
