Once again, I think this discussion about de-identified data needs to be watched closely. in many respcets it can't be useful to GPs if it is de-identified, including to source, and even if the GP is identified, he'll want to know who the problem patients are. The Adelaide West atlas doesn't use de-identified data.
Greg, as I understand it, the data that the Atlas uses for its funky graphs and maps is definately de-identified (from a patient perspective). Obviously the source is not de-identified - but that is because each Atlas is done for a particular GP practice and hence there is no doubt as to where the data came from!
