WHO WE ARE

Connecting Researchers to Inclusive Health Data

We've built the NMQF Private Cloud to enable real-time analysis of patient records and social determinants of health records from a diverse selection of local and national databases for researchers across academia, public health, and policy. We're under the umbrella of our larger organization, The National Minority Quality Forum (NMQF). Our members are passionate about health equity and are committed to making a tangible difference in the lives of those disproportionately affected by health disparities.

Connecting Researchers to Inclusive Health Data

While access to patient records is widely available for research, NMQF Private Cloud uniquely consolidates this data against more determinants of health in one place to easily overlay data and provide objective evidence of health inequities in underexamined communities.

NMQF Private Cloud is exclusively dedicated to the intersection between patient records and health inequities. We align the social determinants of health with patient outcomes to uncover systemic barriers; particularly those contributing to disparities among minority and underserved populations.
