through APIs in the 3rd quarter of 2013▫A “Research” app (for longitudinal research) will
launch in 2014
Data Contributors
How to. . . be a Data Contributor▫Get your data matched & prepare to make it
available Match your identity data to the Data Commons
infrastructure Decide what data to make available to the Data
Commons Link your data to Data Commons
▫On-going… Match new identities as they come in to your
organization’s systems Identify data prices and rules for availability As application are approved, grant permissions for
requesting apps to use your data
How to . . . .Request DataData Confirmation• What: An organization
requests that Data Commons confirm that information submitted by an individual is true
• Who works with Data Commons: A software “app” eg journal, social networking software, etc.
• How: Through an API
Data Verification• What: An individual
requests or authorizes another to request official documents / proof of status, certification, license, scores, etc.

How the Identity Matching Service (IDMS) works
• Set up: Participating organizations provide identifying data about the population of interest, including the organization’s “native” ID (e.g., USMLE ID) so they can be added to IDMS▫ Currently matching 4 new partner organizations
• On-going: As new persons are added or existing persons updated, the organization submits additional identifying data records to IDMS
• On-demand: As data requests are processed, the IDMS translates “native” ID of the requestor to the “native” ID of the data contributor▫ Example:
NBME requests data about a student identified by a USMLE ID IDMS translates the request to identify the student by an AAMC ID IDMS forwards the translated request to AAMC
