This scrubber utility uses several methods to remove confidential identifiers from structured XML or plain text including:
- comparing raw & derived variations of input text phrases to lists of known identifiers (names, states, etc)
- applying a series of Regular Expressions
While typically used to prepare confidential reports to be compliant with HIPAA standards, this utility is practical for any
organization looking to protect privacy of their records – regardless if they are being used for medical purposes or not.
