A method for validating clinical data (230) from patient records includes receiving a consistency requirement (212), receiving a data claim (metadata) associated with clinical data (230), and evaluating the data claim based at least in part on the consistency requirement (212). A clinical data validation system (100,200) for performing the method includes a consistency requirement input component adapted to receive a consistency requirement (212), a data claim input component adapted to receive a data claim, and a validation component (110,210) adapted to evaluate the data claim based at least in part on the consistency requirement (212). If the data is invalid, the user is alerted. A translation authority may be used to translate a data claim from one namespace to another for instances where data claims from different hospitals, for example, have different identifiers for their patients. |
