The Observational Medical Outcomes Partnership (OMOP) is a public-private partnership designed to inform the appropriate use of observational data for studying the real-world effects of medical products. OMOP is a multi-year methodological research initiative that has developed a network of administrative claims and electronic health records databases and established a community of methodologists to test the feasibility and utility of large-scale observational analyses. Each year, OMOP holds an annual symposium to publicly share insights from the partnership's ongoing research with all interested stakeholders.
