Researchers present findings from OFHS-sponsored studies

The findings of ten population health research projects were presented this week at a conference at Ohio State University.

The research projects used data from the 2008 Ohio Family Health Survey. The OFHS is the largest state-specific health survey in the country, having surveyed 50,944 Ohio households.

The full reports, policy briefs and PowerPoint presentations have been posted to the Ohio Family Health Survey Web site.

The OFHS research project was managed by The Ohio State University’s Ohio Colleges of Medicine Government Resource Center, and the Health Policy Institute of Ohio. The survey was conducted by Macro International. The project was funded by The Ohio Departments of Insurance, Job and Family Services, Health, and Mental Health, the Cleveland State University, and the Ohio Board of Regents.
