Independent State Health Surveys

Abstract: Context There is high demand for local-level population health data. A national system of state and local data collection would help improve both population health and health care delivery. The primary source of state-level population health data for adults is the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System. However, many states need data on children and adolescents, racial and ethnic subpopulations, consistent estimates for localities, or more in-depth information on key topics than the Behavioral Risk Factor … Show more

“…9,10 Given these limitations, national, state, or county data are often inadequate to inform work being implemented at a community level. [11][12][13][14] To address these challenges, the population dose methodology was developed and has become fundamental to the work of Kaiser Permanente's CHI, a multisector place-based initiative designed to promote obesity prevention, policy, and environmental change in communities. 15 Although the term "dose" is being used more frequently in public health literature, there is no widely accepted definition of dose or method for dose measurement.…”

“…However, it is important to understand regional variation as it is more likely to capture underlying social constructs than a national sample. [ 49 ] Moreover, the study findings can be interpreted as an addition to a growing body of research focused on individual states, which may be used to complement aggregate results from national surveys.…”

“…Therefore, many states in Australia have their own approach to behavioural risk factor surveillance. This is one of the reasons that state-level surveys have evolved in the USA alongside the BRFSS, that is, to inform planning for the local context and ensure that health data is rapidly available at the smallest geographical level to address health disparities based on factors such as ethnicity and socioeconomic status [ 6 ].…”
