Abstract

Research on real-world data is becoming increasingly important. The current restriction to clinical data in Germany limits the view of the patient. To gain comprehensive insights, claims data can be added to the existing knowledge. However, standardized transfer of German claims data into OMOP CDM is currently not possible. In this paper, we conducted an evaluation regarding the coverage of source vocabularies and data elements of German claims data in OMOP CDM. We point out the need to extend vocabularies and mappings to support research on German claims data.
