Health Management and Policy Presentations

This first meeting of two newly reconstituted Working Groups for the National Health Security Preparedness Index Program examined opportunities for improving and refining the Index's measurement, scaling, weighting, and aggregation methodologies. Methodological improvements will enhance the Index's utility for education, planning, policy development, and quality improvement efforts focused on improving national preparedness and resiliency for large-scale health threats.
