Denmark offers one of the world’s most robust environments for real-world evidence generation. Key strengths include:
1️⃣ Fast access to comprehensive data
The average time to fully process applications at the Danish Health Data Authority was ~40 days in November 2025, enabling rapid access to national-level data.
2️⃣ Rich clinical quality registries
With more than 80 nationwide clinical registries and 30 health and socioeconomic registries, Denmark provides insights far beyond claims data.
These databases include validated diagnoses, prognostic factors, lifestyle risk indicators, healthcare resource utilization, and associated costs; forming a strong foundation for high-quality RWE.
3️⃣ Utilisation of national registries
National registries enable population identification, linkage across data sources, and access to biological measurements such as blood, urine, biopsies, and spinal fluid.
4️⃣ Linking survey and register data
Survey data can be linked to registries to capture information not routinely collected, including disease management, disease severity, symptom burden, and HRQoL.
This integration strengthens evidence, adds patient-centred perspectives, and supports research that can inform policy and clinical care.
5️⃣ Secure integration with research servers
In Denmark, Quantify supports biopharma organisations in uploading proprietary data and securely merging it with registry data on dedicated research servers.
6️⃣ Continuous expansion of data access
Denmark continues to expand research opportunities by making new databases available, including national initiatives such as the children’s database.
