The concept of Public Health 3.0 has been around a while and yet we still haven't adequately implemented the data aspect of this concept in a way that could save lives from overdoses. "4. Timely, reliable, granular-level (i.e., subcounty), and actionable data should be made accessible to communities throughout the country, and clear metrics to document success in public health practice should be developed to guide, focus, and assess the impact of prevention initiatives, including those targeting the social determinants of health and enhancing equity." https://lnkd.in/g6Gd46UQ

It’s national public health week! This week, we celebrate the role of collaboration, cooperation and partnerships in improving public health. Through collaborative cross-sector action, we’re working to foster an environment county-wide where the healthiest choices become the easiest, common, and most enjoyable choices so that every county resident can eat to thrive! As a collaborative hub and partner, we’re working to build a community where: 🌿 Healthcare providers are equipped and united to prevent, expand treatment options for, and/or reverse chronic disease by prioritizing nutrition and lifestyle's central role in health. 🌿 Direct service and community organizations, food access teams and policy makers are equipped with knowledge, resources and tools to prioritize access to foods and services that provide the most benefit to human health 🌿 Community members are met where they're at with employer supported programs that improve health and workplace cultures/systems and support and prioritize employee and customer health and well-being 🌿 Community members and families are equipped with the knowledge, know-how, encouragement, and community support to confidently make meaningful habit changes that improve health and lower risk of chronic disease. Together we can improve health outcomes, lower risk of chronic disease, lower healthcare and medical costs, improve healthcare provider and workforce well-being, improve patient satisfaction, and advance health equity and resilience. We all can play a role in promoting good health and well-being in our community.

Behind the headlines on Australia’s top performing health system ranking… For those who got excited about the lead ranking given to Australia’s health system by The Commonwealth Fund in its latest ‘mirror, mirror’ report which compares the performance of several countries, this analysis by Charles Maskell-Knight is well worth a read - as is the report itself. Yes, we do well on many aspects but the devil is in the detail and there’s room for improvement is Charles’ summation. Apart from not resting on our laurels, perhaps another salient message we should take from this last Fund report is: what future mega trends are going to impact on our system’s performance and sustainability? Are we planning ahead and innovating at a sufficient pace to future-proof our system? #healthsystempeformance #healthsystemsustainability #healthpolicy

The UK's health care crisis demands a new approach. Prevention is key. Addressing the underlying issues that make people sick before they arise can improve overall health and reduce costs. Obvious solutions like cross-government collaboration are often the hardest to implement. There is hope. Previous attempts to reduce health inequalities show prevention works. The Health Foundation is offering a path forward with a "Bill of Health" outlining actionable steps for sustained, cross-government prevention efforts. This Bill of Health will explore tools like clear targets to turn prevention from a good idea into a real force for change. By learning from similar challenges like climate change, we can develop a roadmap for a healthier, more equitable future. #Healthcare #Policy #Inequity #Prevention #internationalhealth

As the world faces new health challenges like the recent mpox outbreak, leaders Pamela Cipriano and Magda Robalo stress the importance of Universal Health Coverage (UHC) in pandemic preparedness. With the 11th session of the Intergovernmental Negotiating Body underway, it's crucial that we prioritize UHC in the pandemic agreement. UHC ensures access to essential health services for all and strengthens our ability to detect and respond to health threats. Investment in UHC, especially through primary health care, will make our global health systems more resilient and equitable. 🌍 Let’s take collective action to protect everyone and prioritize UHC for a safer future. https://bit.ly/3BkCBET #UHC #PandemicPreparedness #MpoxOutbreak #GlobalHealth #UHC2030 #HealthSecurity
