Finland, with its robust healthcare system and comprehensive data infrastructure, provides an ideal environment for conducting real-world evidence (RWE) studies.

In this context, let’s explore the distinctive features of Finnish real-world data (RWD) and how they can contribute towards high-impact research:

1. Wide Range Of Data Opportunities Using National Registries:
Researchers can explore a treasure trove of information, including nationwide primary care and specialty care, prescriptions, cause of death, sickness, and disability benefits.

2.  Access to Detailed Clinical Data from Wellbeing Service Counties:
Beyond administrative registries, Finland offers detailed clinical data from wellbeing service counties where clinical nuances are crucial for research. These databases include information on laboratory, imaging and other diagnostic procedures.

3.  Continuous Expansion of Quality Of Care registries :
Finland remains committed to expanding research opportunities. The quality register regulation ensures the long-term development of national quality registers covering specific disease areas such as diabetes, HIV, nephrology, psychosis, spine conditions, oral health, cardiac care, intensive care, and inflammatory arthritis.

4. Streamlined Centralized Access Process:
Finland’s centralized process for issuing permits and data linkage ensures efficient access to health and social data through one single point of contact.
