The paper discusses a program for removing patient identification information from hospital discharge documents in order to make them available for scientific research e.g. information extraction system designing. The presented method allows de–anonymization of documents using a key–code file that is created on the basis of a patient‘s surname, forename and date of birth. Problems of normalization of crucial data used in the key–code file creation are presented.
