Casper Knudsen presented the paper 'Maintaining data quality at the hospital department level - the data work of medical secretaries' at the Scandinavian Conference on Health Informatics held at UiT- The Arctic University of Norway on August 22-24. The article, authored by Casper Knudsen and Pernille Bertelsen, zooms in on the role of the registration responsible medical secretary in five Danish hospitals and the work they – as a non-clinical group – carry out as they act as both ‘data detectives’ and play a key role in relation to data quality at department level.

In his Ph.D project, Casper investigates the work conducted in relation to health data by medical screataries at Danish hospitals.
