Creating a learning health system to include environmental determinants of health: The <scp>GroundsWell</scp> experience
These activities have established a secure method for protecting the privacy of NHS patients in England, while allowing linkage of wider environmental data. This enables local health systems to learn from their data and improve health by optimizing non-health factors. Proportionate governance of health and linked non-health data is practical in England for incorporating key environmental factors into a learning health system.
