Diverse gender, sex and sexuality: data collection and population health

This two part series examines diverse gender, sex and sexuality (DGSS) in the context of health information management. Part 1 discusses the need for and creation of data definitions and reporting requirements for DGSS, and describes the new International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems, 11th Revision (ICD-11) sexual health chapter. These new data definitions and reporting requirements can be used in a variety of settings and allow for the classification and effective collection of gender identity and related sexual health material, most importantly without stigmatisation. Part 2 considers managing safe and inclusive workplaces.
