Altarum is honored to announce a collaboration with Mathematica in providing direct support to state, tribal, local, and territorial health departments to adopt new technology and data standards to better connect health care data into the public health ecosystem. In July 2024, the Association of State and Territorial Health Officials (ASTHO), National Network of Public Health Institutes (NNPHI), and Public Health Accreditation Board (PHAB) announced the launch of a new Implementation Center Program to support public health agencies as they modernize their data systems. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention provided $255M in funding through the Public Health Infrastructure Grant (PHIG), This investment will support data modernization by: · Streamlining how public health agencies operate by using modern technologies · Reducing the burden of data exchange between public health agencies, healthcare, and the communities in which they serve · Leveraging an existing multi-billion-dollar investment in electronic health records to support better, more timely data for public health action Altarum proudly leverages over two decades of experience in strengthening public health information technology infrastructure to support Mathematica, one of the four Implementation Centers. Altarum encourages public health agencies interested in participating in the Implementation Center program to complete an Expression of Interest (EOI) form, which will be available soon on the PHIG Partners website. https://lnkd.in/eWP4iBbK
