HPIO creates online reference guide to evidence-based public health practices
Evidence-based medicine and best practices are highly influential in medical decisions, reimbursement and quality measurement strategies. And federal health reform efforts have placed an increased emphasis on disease prevention and wellness promotion, opening the door for changes in reimbursement and quality measurement in public health.
In an effort to link public health professionals and other community health leaders to the resources they need to make informed decisions about effective interventions in their communities, The Health Policy Institute of Ohio has created an online reference guide to evidence-based public health practices.
The site is organized into four sections:
- Evidence-Based Public Health Overview
- Supporting data for EBPH
- Evidence-Based Public Health Practice Resources
- Related Topics & Resources
This reference guide is an ongoing project. Your comments and suggestions for improving the site are welcome. Please email lfrazier@hpio.net.
