12/10/15: Our first database profile from Malta

In our ongoing effort to describe more population healthcare databases, we now have profiles from 36 countries.

Our newest profile, the Malta Congenital Anomalies Register (MCAR) captures major birth defect data from all hospitals on the Maltese Islands via case report forms on an active and passive basis. Over the 2003-2012 period, out of 40,493 live births, a total of 1,184 babies with major congenital anomalies were registered with MCAR.

11/4/15: New Japanese profile added

The Medical Data Vision EBM Provider® is a medical health insurance claims database with inpatient and outpatient information since April 2008. The database covers about 4% of the Japanese population, and 13% of total number of beds for large hospitals. It currently consists of 208 large (mainly tertiary) hospitals in Japan, and more are being added regularly.
