These instructions have been created to provide general guidance to researchers seeking services from the DHS Informatics &

...

Analytics Core Facility.

Info

A DHS-affiliated Investigator or co-investigator is required on your study staff and as the requestor of the research data set.

This person will be responsible for compliance with DHS policies, including data transfer and access policies. For all data request types,
the DHS Investigator must have a county ID number that begins with E or C. If the researcher does not have an E or C number, they must
enlist the partnership or a DHS investigator with DHS affiliation, even for aggregate patient counts.

Scheduling a Navigation Consultation

If you're not sure where to get started, schedule a navigation consultation to learn more about DHS Informatics Resources by sending an email to the helpdesk:  helpdesk@dhs.lacounty.gov with the subject line "Research Data Consultation".  Please include details of your data requirements, any relevant data sets in the DHS Reports Library, your data dictionary, or i2b2 queries, and invite your data analyst to join. Our team can help identify and learn how to use DHS self-service tools, scope your data request, project budget, and IRB materials, as needed.
