Data via the Secure EPHT Portal
The data sets contained in the indicators on the EPHT main website are considered
public use data sets (PUDS). For purposes of the Tracking program, PUDS for health
and biomonitoring data are defined as data sets that are comprised of aggregated
data with all individually identifiable data or information removed and with the
remaining fields modified or suppressed so as to reduce disclosure risk as much
as reasonably possible and such that it is not possible to create any tables that
violate state or federal rules. PUDS for environmental data sets are defined as
data sets comprised of aggregated and/or summarized data which have been processed
for the purposes of interpretation and presentation of nationally consistent measures.
If you have reached this page, you should be a bonafide researcher and meet the
necessary requirements in order to obtain this data. If you are requesting data,
you will be directed to a secure log on page that you will have to complete and
provide additional information. Upon completion and approval of the application,
you will be granted a secure log on and password.
Once you have been granted permission by the Data Owners for a particular data set,
you can use this secure EPHT web portal to query out data containing low numbers
(considered restricted access data sets). For more information, please contact Dr.
Greg Kearney at the Florida Department of Health at (850) 245-4444 ext. 4577, or
