In game this service is implicitly rendered by the registry when establishing communication between two agents while exchanging their coordination structures.
In each country, random samples were drawn from death registries.
The utility of non-name based registries for matching purposes needs to be assessed.
Among these are improvements in quality assurance, enhancing communication between the ambulatory and hospital sectors, and organizing a nationwide cancer registry.
The registry must therefore decide what level of matching it wishes to set.
The registries were then matched again using five increasingly less specific criteria to compare sensitivity, specificity and accuracy.
With name-based registries, sensitivities increased as the matching criteria became less exacting, while the accuracy declined slightly.
The use of a non-name-based surveillance registry in a match for such purposes requires developing an estimate of sensitivity, specificity and positive predictive value.
