What is it?
A secure, self-service portal giving clinicians and researchers fast access to de-identified hospital data for analysis and planning.
The challenge
Gaining timely access to quality hospital data is traditionally slow, expensive, and resource-intensive, delaying critical research and decision-making.
How it works
Authorised users sign in with Queensland Health credentials, select their Hospital and Health Service district, and ask plain-English questions. The system translates these into optimised queries, runs them securely, and returns cohort summaries or downloadable spreadsheets within seconds — with no exposure of identifying data.
