Reporting, unique identifier definition - medical term
In public health, a system that uses
information such as the person's birth date and part of their identification number
(in the U.S., the social security number) to create a unique code that is reported instead
of a name. It is an alternative to named reporting that provides some of the surveillance
benefits of reporting by name, such as the elimination of duplicate reports, while
reducing privacy concerns by avoiding use of a person's name. This system is used
with HIV testing for example in Maryland and Texas.
