The healthcare organizations are the latest to join the Mid-South Clinical Data Research Network, founded in 2014 with funding from the Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute, authorized by Congress to fund research aimed at improving the health of entire populations.

Overall, PCORI invested more than $250 million in the development of the National Patient-Centered Clinical Research Network (PCORnet), whose members map data to the same consistent format or common data model.
