For a org.openmrs.Patient and org.openmrs.Person Object we need to remove the 18 PHI Identifiers:

  • Names
    • Remove all their names (a patient can have multiple names in OpenMRS with a preferred name) . Optionally we can then fill in a randomly chosen nameand replace with a fake name (e.g., name(s) selected from a pool of fake names).
  • Geographic data
    • Remove their all addresses (a patient can have multiple addresses) . Optionally we can generate a random address based on some criteria.
  • All elements of dates
    • and generate a fake address.
    • Remove all GPS data.
  • Dates
    • For birthdate, replace month & day with random values for patients under 60 years of age.  For patients 60+ years of age, adjust year randomly by ±5 years.
    • For all data (observations, encounters, etc.) replace month & day with random values, keeping sequence of data (intervals will change randomly).
    • For all other dates, randomly replace month & day.
  • Person attributes
    • Remove all person attributes, which could include telephone data, fax numbers, or other identifiable data.
  • Telephone numbers
    • These are likely include often included in a Person's extra attribute data.

    • Remove all patient identifers, replacing with a fake (randomly generated & unique) identifer.
  • Medical record numbers
    • We will need to remove each Patient's PatientIdentifier ( a Patient can have multiple of these. ) Optionally, we can fill in a randomly generated oneRemove all patient identifiers, replace with a fake (randomly generated & unique) identifier.

  • Web URLs
  • Internet protocol addresses
  • Biometric identifiers (i.e. retinal scan, fingerprints)
  • Full face photos and comparable images
  • Any unique identifying number, characteristic or code

For each Patients org.openmrs.Encounter Object we will need to do the following:

  • Randomize the month & day of Encounter DatetimeRemove / change the , keeping encounters in the same sequence without maintaining intervals between them.
  • Assign random location of the encounter.
  • We may also need some sort of 'obs filter' that includes a list of obs and rules specific to the concept dictionary that must be removed from encounters.

Family Data:

  • We may need to either completely remove or rework family relationships that are included in the relationship tableRemove all relationships between persons.
