To enhance the public health benefit of these studies, public use data sets will be made available to qualified researchers.
NEMIS public use data sets are generally made available after study completion in accordance with NEMSIS policy. NEMSIS data sets will be provided only to investigators who agree to adhere to the signed research data use agreement.
