The Economics Of Implementing Population Health Strategies: Progress In Public Health Services & Systems Research, Glen P. Mays
The Economics Of Implementing Population Health Strategies: Progress In Public Health Services & Systems Research, Glen P. Mays
Health Management and Policy Presentations
Successful strategies to scale up and spread complex community-level interventions require an understanding of the resources required for implementation, how best to distribute them among supporting institutions, and how resource consumption and distribution varies across settings. This session reviews methods and early findings from the RWJF’s Public Health Delivery and Cost Studies (DACS) Initiative, which includes 12 inter-related studies examining the causes and consequences of variation in the costs of delivering complex community-level prevention strategies across more than 300 community settings in 12 states. Findings from these studies highlight the value of studying the economics of implementation, the measurement and …

Cost Estimates Of Foundational Public Health Services: Results From Piloting An Expert Consensus Methodology, C. B. Mamaril, Glen P. Mays
Health Management and Policy Presentations
We review preliminary estimates from pilot testing a cost estimation methodology developed to identify the resources required to implement a set of Foundational Public Health Services as recommended by the Institute of Medicine and defined by the Public Health Leadership Forum.
Cost Estimates Of Foundational Public Health Services: Results From Piloting The Expert Consensus Methodology In Kentucky, C. B. Mamaril, Glen P. Mays
Cost Estimates Of Foundational Public Health Services: Results From Piloting The Expert Consensus Methodology In Kentucky, C. B. Mamaril, Glen P. Mays
Health Management and Policy Presentations
We developed a methodology for estimating the resources required to deliver a set of foundational public health capabilities as recommended in the 2012 Institute of Medicine report on public health financing. The capabilities are based on IOM recommendations and defined by a national expert panel convened as part of the Public Health Leadership Forum. This paper presents preliminary estimates from a pilot test of the cost estimation methodology in Kentucky, and outlines plans for the national estimation strategy.

Cost Estimates Of Foundational Public Health Capabilities: Pilot Test Results Of An Expert Consensus Methodology In Kentucky, C. B. Mamaril, Glen P. Mays
Health Management and Policy Presentations
The Institute of Medicine's 2012 report on U.S. public health financing recommended research to identify the components and costs of a "minimum package" of public health services and foundational capabilities to be made available in every U.S. community. We present results from pilot testing of a proposed methodology for estimating the costs and resource requirements for a set of foundational public health capabilities identified by the Public Health Leadership Forum. Using pilot data from Kentucky public health settings, we estimate both current and projected costs under a range of assumptions about the resources required to fully implement the capabilities at …
