This report describes the results of a data query of the patients with sensory-related health conditions that had at least 1 face-to-face encounter and a recorded diagnosis code (e.g., ICD-10) at a health care setting across PCORnet between January 1 – December 31, 2024. The query used a 5-year “look-back” period to identify patients with diagnosis codes for specific sensory-related health conditions that were reflected in the electronic health record. The query results will enhance public awareness of the population of patients with sensory health conditions as well as utilization of health care services by these patients across sites participating in PCORnet that potentially would be available for future health care research.

OCHIN-ADVANCE PEP Engagement Guide and Request Form
OCHIN-ADVANCE Clinical Research Network (CRN) developed a request form for researchers to engage with their Patient Engagement Panel (PEP). This can be used as a template by stakeholders when creating utilization request forms to engage patient groups.
Master Code Set
The master code set provides a centralized, standardized reference of clinical codes across various disease areas along with their corresponding descriptions and classifications. It is designed to support consistent cohort definition, analysis, and reporting by ensuring uniform use of codes across studies and sites. By consolidating all relevant codes into a single, curated resource, the master code set reduces ambiguity, improves reproducibility, and streamlines multi-site research workflows. This comprehensive mapping enables researchers to efficiently identify, compare, and analyze patient populations across a wide range of conditions and data domains.

Patient Engagement Panel (PEP) Proposal Review Template Presentation
OCHIN-ADVANCE Clinical Research Network (CRN) developed this template for researchers to use when discussing proposals with a Patient Engagement Panel (PEP). The template provides a structure for introducing the research study proposal, planned engagement, and how the PEP may support the study.
Metabolic and Endocrine Conditions Population Insights
This report describes the results of a data query of the patients with selected metabolic and endocrine conditions that had at least 1 face-to-face ambulatory encounter and a recorded diagnosis code (e.g., ICD-10) at a health care setting across PCORnet between January 1 – December 31, 2024. The query used a 5-year “look-back” period to identify patients with diagnosis codes for specific metabolic and endocrine conditions that were reflected in the electronic medical record. The query results will enhance public awareness of the population of patients with metabolic and endocrine conditions as well as diagnosis codes related to overweight and obesity across sites participating in PCORnet that potentially would be available for future health care research.
OCHIN-ADVANCE Engagement and Recruitment Guide
This document is an introductory guide for those interested in working with the OCHIN-ADVANCE Clinical Research Network (CRN). It describes engagement and recruitment activities and gives points of contact within the network. This can be used for stakeholders formulating documentation on engagement and recruitment activities.
Patient Advisory Council (PAC) Handbook
This handbook describes the policies, procedures, benefits, and practices of the Greater Plains Collaborative (GPC) Patient Advisory Council (PAC) membership and engagement opportunities. This resource can be used by researchers and other stakeholder groups that are interested in creating a PAC to make their research more patient-centered.
PCORnet® CRN Population Insights
This report describes the results of a data query of the patient population with at least 1 face-to-face encounter and a recorded diagnosis code (e.g., ICD-10) at a health care setting across PCORnet between January 1 – December 31, 2024. The query results will enhance public awareness of the population of patients across sites participating in PCORnet that potentially would be available for future health care research.
Women’s Health Population Insights
This report describes the results of a network data query of the patient population of women receiving health care services at clinical sites across PCORnet between January 1, 2019 – December 31, 2023. The query results will enhance public awareness of the population of patients that are women across sites participating in PCORnet that potentially would be available for future health care research.
Research Review and Prioritization Group (RRPG) Researcher Template Deck
This RRPG Researcher Template Deck can help investigators prepare presentations for a research review. The template outlines required study information, including grant status and site-specific requests. The completed slides can be provided prior to a presentation so reviewers can familiarize themselves with the project and provide better feedback.
