Our experience provides an approach for organizations to leverage existing data for care improvement and research in other conditions. This is the first consensus-based and theory-driven specification of data elements and logic to support identification and labeling of GMF in patients for measuring improvements in care or the impact of new treatments. More research is needed to validate this phenotype model and the extent that these data differentiate between classes of GMF to support various LHS activities.
