Apparatus and a method for generating a dictionary data filter for data deidentification

Abstract

An apparatus for generating a dictionary data filter for data deidentification is disclosed. The apparatus includes at least processor and a memory communicatively connected to the processor. The memory instructs the processor to receive a plurality of user data. The memory instructs the processor to generate contextual data as a function of the plurality of user data. The memory instructs the processor to identify a plurality of patient identifiers and a plurality of localized terms within the plurality of user data. The memory instructs the processor to generate a dictionary data filter as a function of the plurality of localized terms. The memory instructs the processor to identify one or more misidentified patient identifiers within the plurality of patient identifiers using the dictionary data filter. The memory instructs the processor to modify the plurality of patient identifiers as a function of the one or more misidentified patient identifiers.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
