Effective population health management must be undergirded by data from both the public health system and the health care system. As rising healthcare administrators, it is increasingly imperative that each of you possesses the ability to communicate your findings from “big data” and “small data” alike in a manner that can be understood by your peer colleagues and the communities in which you serve. Moreover, in an effort to afford each student enrolled in the course the added value and opportunity to be exposed to preloaded data and new data sets you must complete the following case study assignment:
1) Review each of the 4 web-based tools annotated in our course text on the bottom of page 304.
2) Then complete/write a comparative analysis between each web-based tool utilizing the following criteria:
– What is the identified purpose of each tool?
– What constructs are similar versus dis-simular?
– What type of data is embedded within each tool?
– What methodology is used to collect the data needed for each tool?
– How long is the tool? i.e. how many questions, how much time does it take to complete the tool, etc?
– Based on the information that you’ve reviewed in Chapter 13 do you believe that the feasibility of each tool highlighted is more relevant to the public health system, population healthcare or both. Explain your answer.
