Description | The existence of health registers at the national level allows for a systematic and continuous control of the state of healthcare, the digitalisation of certain services and the overall improvement of the state of care. The data collected in such registers are then analysed and visualised. Thanks to this, it is possible to effectively evaluate various indicators and thus pass on a comprehensive picture to all stakeholders involved in the health system - legislators, healthcare providers and patients. The Registry of Tuberculosis (RTBC) is one source of data. The article describes this data source as well as the methods that lead to the creation of a freely available online interactive tool. Published visualisations offer a view of the data from several angles and deal with various subtopics of tuberculosis. Finally, particular results and possible improvements are presented. |
