Abstract: The fungal meningitis outbreak experience highlights the need to better understand the landscape of granting and using access to Electronic Health Records (EHRs) for outbreak investigations. This assessment "Healthcare Facilities Granting State Health Departments Access to EHR Data During a Healthcare-Associated Infection Outbreak: A Retrospective Assessment" examines stakeholder perspectives in granting and using access to EHRs in outbreak settings. An initial data collection (Phase I) of this assessment investigated HD experiences, and this data collection (Phase II) seeks to explore healthcare facility experiences.
