Summary Of Results From The 2016 National Health Security Preparedness Index, Glen P. Mays, Michael T. Childress, Pierre Martin Dominique Zephyr, Anna Goodman Hoover
Health Management and Policy Reports
The National Health Security Preparedness Index tracks the nation’s progress in preparing for, responding to, and recovering from disasters and other large-scale emergencies that pose risks to health and well-being in the United States. Because health security is a responsibility shared by many different stakeholders in government and society, the Index combines measures from multiple sources and perspectives to offer a broad view of the health protections in place for nation as a whole and for each U.S. state. The Index identifies strengths as well as gaps in the protections needed to keep people safe and healthy in the face …

Defining Comprehensive Public Health Delivery Systems, National Coordinating Center For Public Health Services And Systems Research
Defining Comprehensive Public Health Delivery Systems, National Coordinating Center For Public Health Services And Systems Research
Health Management and Policy Reports
This brief describes the methodology for defining Comprehensive Public Health Delivery Systems using data from the National Longitudinal Survey of Public Health Systems. The systems meeting this definition have been shown to deliver a broader range of recommended public health services, using fewer resources, than the more prevalent types of U.S. public health systems that do not meet this definition. Over time, comprehensive systems are associated with larger gains in population health status than are their counterparts.

Estimating The Costs Of Foundational Public Health Capabilities: A Recommended Methodology, Dwight V. Denison, Cezar B. Mamaril, Glen P. Mays, Lizeth C. Fowler, Workgroup On Public Health Cost Estimation
Health Management and Policy Reports
The Institute of Medicine’s 2012 report on public health financing recommended the convening of expert panels to identify the components and costs of a “minimum package of public health services” that should be available in every U.S. community. The report recommended that this minimum package include a core set of public health programs that target specific, high-priority preventable health problems and risks, along with a set of “foundational public health capabilities” that are deemed necessary to support the successful implementation of public health programs and policies. In response to this recommendation, the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, in collaboration with the …
Patterns Of Interaction Public Health Pbrns: Insight From Network Analysis, Rachel A. Hogg, Glen P. Mays
Patterns Of Interaction Public Health Pbrns: Insight From Network Analysis, Rachel A. Hogg, Glen P. Mays
Health Management and Policy Reports
This report presents data from a network analysis survey conducted with public health practice-based research networks (PBRNs) to examine patterns of interaction among researchers and public health practitioners who participate in the networks. These data provide a baseline for tracking the types and frequencies of interaction that occur within networks, and reveal opportunities for promoting more productive patterns of engagement in applied public health research. Over time, these types of data can reveal how and under what circumstances PBRNs facilitate the production and application of research about public health services and delivery systems. The analysis includes data on more than …
National Longitudinal Survey Of Public Health Systems: 2011-2012 Wave, Public Health Practice-Based Research Networks
National Longitudinal Survey Of Public Health Systems: 2011-2012 Wave, Public Health Practice-Based Research Networks
Health Management and Policy Reports
Since 1998, researchers have followed a nationally representative cohort of U.S. communities to examine the types of public health activities performed within the community, the range of organizations contributing to each activity, and the perceived effectiveness of each activity in addressing community needs. This information, obtained through a validated survey of local public health officials, provides an in-depth view of the structure and function of local public health delivery systems and how these systems evolve over time. Originally conducted with support from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the National Longitudinal Survey of Public Health Systems (NLSPHS) was …
Using Public Health Pbrn Research To Inform Policy & Practice, Public Health Practice-Based Research Networks
Using Public Health Pbrn Research To Inform Policy & Practice, Public Health Practice-Based Research Networks
Health Management and Policy Reports
The Public Health Practice-Based Research Networks Program is a national program of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation that supports research networks dedicated to producing new scientific knowledge on how best to organize, finance, and deliver public health strategies in realworld practice settings. This body of scientific inquiry, known as Public Health Services and Systems Research (PHSSR), is a rapidly developing area of scholarship within the larger fields of public health research and health services research. A public health practice-based research network (PBRN) brings multiple public health organizations into collaboration with an academic research center for the purposes of designing and …
Building A Sustainable Public Health Pbrn: Tips For Securing Ongoing Research Funding, Public Health Practice-Based Research Networks
Building A Sustainable Public Health Pbrn: Tips For Securing Ongoing Research Funding, Public Health Practice-Based Research Networks
Health Management and Policy Reports
Diversify your network’s research funding base. The Public Health PBRN Program funding made available by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation provides start-up resources and initial research support for networks, but networks will require larger and more sustainable sources of funding for public health research as they progress. The most ample sources can be found in federal funding agencies that operate competitive extramural research programs, include CDC, NIH, AHRQ, HRSA, USDA, and NSF. Public health research funding is also available from state and foundation sources, and even corporate sources (e.g. Pfizer’s Public Health Research Fellowship Program). For sustainability, networks should look …
Public Health Pbrns: Generating Evidence For Policy & Practice, Public Health Practice-Based Research Networks Program
Public Health Pbrns: Generating Evidence For Policy & Practice, Public Health Practice-Based Research Networks Program
Health Management and Policy Reports
The Public Health Practice-Based Research Networks Program is a national program of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation that supports the development of research networks for studying the comparative effectiveness, efficiency and equity of public health strategies deployed in real-world practice settings. A practice-based research network (PBRN) brings multiple public health agencies together with research partners to design and implement studies of population-based strategies that prevent disease and injury and promote health. Participating practitioners and researchers collaborate to identify pressing research questions of interest, design rigorous and relevant studies, execute research effectively, and translate findings rapidly into practice. As such, PBRNs …

Designing A Successful Practice-Based Research Network In Public Health: Key Concepts, Glen P. Mays, Sharla A. Smith
Health Management and Policy Reports
Successful public health practice-based research networks (PBRNs) will require organizational, financial, and intellectual resources that allow practitioners and researchers to mount relevant studies in real-world public health settings. This brief outlines characteristics likely to be important to the success of public health PBRNs, based on the experience of PBRNs in other practice settings

Health Management and Policy Reports
Public health decision-makers and researchers currently lack an evidence-based framework for describing, classifying, and comparing public health delivery systems based on their organizational components, operational characteristics, and division of responsibility. Related typologies developed in the health services sector have proven extremely valuable for policy and administrative decision-making as well as for ongoing research. Performance assessment, quality improvement, and accreditation activities are now blossoming in public health—adding urgency to the need for classification and comparison frameworks. This brief describes a newly-developed empirical typology for local public health systems and highlights its policy and managerial applications.
