X-Sentinel - Cross Jurisdictional Disease Surveillance
X-Sentinel is an inter-jurisdictional surveillance system to support disease and event case management across borders.
What challenges does X-Sentinel solve?
If two our more health agencies are located on either side of a border (international, state, tribal, or metropolitan) have the need to securely share public health case data, communicate information, be aware of regional early warning and alerts within the local area, and leverage existing population health data systems, STC’s X-Sentinel offers these capabilities and more.
Benefits of X-Sentinel include:
- Provides a secure information sharing environment augmenting existing electronic disease reporting systems (EDSS).
- Leverages disparate data sources to provide regional surveillance and situational awareness, while at the same time meeting confidentiality and data sharing requirements.
- Supports event and outbreak notification and inter-jurisdictional event management.
- Provides integrated data for epidemiologic investigations and management: case reporting, epi curves, spatial representations of data.
