I’m very pleased to have the opportunity to speak with you today about public health in Chicago. First, I’ll briefly introduce the Chicago Public Health Agenda, the blueprint for our work to make Chicago the healthiest city in the nation. Next, I’ll talk about the indicators that we’ve developed to monitor the progress of our efforts, and how we developed them. Finally, I’ll talk about how CDPH and our partners are using data, metrics and technology to improve public health.

Mayor Emanuel and CDPH released the Healthy Chicago Agenda in August 2011. The Agenda identifies 12 priority areas, health status targets for 2020, and 193 strategies to meet our goals. The strategies cover areas of policy, programs, and education and awareness activities. By working on strategies in all these areas, the goals are addressed comprehensively. Healthy Chicago is also a shift from one-time programmatic interventions to sustainable system, policy and environmental changes. Policy, Systems, and Environmental Change is a relatively new way of thinking in public health. Healthy Chicago is changing the environment in Chicago to make healthy choices practical and available to all community members. By changing laws and shaping physical landscapes, a big and sustainable impact can be made with little time and few resources. This type of work engages diverse stakeholders, because we are exerting public health leadership where people live, play, and work.
To come up with our priority areas for Healthy Chicago, we started at the most fundamental level, we asked, “What are we dying of?” And we found that in Chicago, not unlike in the US as a whole, half of all deaths are due to heart disease and cancer. So very simply, we knew we needed to prioritize prevention of the conditions that precede these deaths, such as obesity for example, and the risk factors, such as smoking, that contribute to them.
Healthy Chicago lays out strategies for addressing 12 public health priorities, which are:
Following the identification of each priority area, we selected indicators as a means to monitor the progress of our efforts and set targets for 2020 using Healthy People 2020 as a guide. These indicators also served as a means to examine where we were currently and where we had been. I’ll now go through each of the priority areas, and highlighting some of our indicators along the way so that you to better understand the landscape of public health in Chicago.
Smoking rates among adults are about the same for Chicagoans and United States, approximately 20%. In comparison, Chicago’s smoking rates for high school students are 25% lower than the US (18%).
Almost 70% of Chicago adults are overweight or obese (BRFSS, 2009), and almost 30% of high school students are overweight or obese (YRBSS 2011). These percentages are similar to the US rates of overweight and obesity. Just over 20% of Chicago adults consume 5 or more servings of fruits and vegetables daily (BRFSS, 2009), consistent (same as) the rest of the US.
Like the rest of the country, new HIV infection diagnoses continue to decrease in Chicago. CDPH conducts behavioral surveillance as well as traditional surveillance to monitor HIV. MSM and African-Americans are the subpopulations affected most in Chicago and the United States.

Partnerships have been key to the Healthy Chicago successes we’ve seen thus far. On this slide are many of the agencies we work with on Healthy Chicago priorities – Hospitals, community development corporations, public agencies, FQHC’s, universities, businesses and more – have all played an important role.

I’d like to share with you some examples of how CDPH and our partners are advancing Healthy Chicago through technology. I’ll start with the Chicago Health Atlas, turn to the City of Chicago’s open data portal, and end with the FoodBorneChi app.
First and foremost Chicago Health Atlas is a collaboration. It came to life through the work of informatics researchers at several institutions in Chicago who asked the question: How much overlap is there in patient care?
Or, in other words, to what extent are individual patients seen at more than one institution or network for their health care.
The researchers were convened under the umbrella of the Chicago Regional Extension Center. This is the agency that works to promote the use of electronic health records / and provide technical assistance / in our city.
The Chicago Community Trust has several projects related to expanding access to the Internet across all areas of the city. It also provides great leadership and technical skill in our local open data movement.
My institution, CDPH, has been able to provide a public health perspective on potential uses of the data, and give input on approaches to analyzing the data and disseminating results.
Chicago Health Atlas is a big database, too. It has de-identified electronic health record data for about one million Chicagoans, with in-patient and out-patient visits spanning from 2006 through 2011, and individual patient records matched across institutions. Much more detail is on the way about all this.
Thanks to the work at Chicago Community Trust, the collaborative has a website that's up and running at ChicagoHealthAtlas.org
This serves as the public face of the project - the place where data on public health indicators - as well as community assets – is available to the public.
The website is now live but still actively under construction. The first datasets included were the public health indicators that CDPH posted on the City of Chicago Data Portal. Data can be viewed for temporal and neighborhood trends, as well as places people can go in their neighborhoods to improve their own health.
SCREENSHOT
The creation of the website has involved the following:
Identifying health-related data from potential partners across the city and evaluating the need for data-sharing agreements;
From these partners, securing and importing point data ( such as locations of services or health-related events and infrastructure) and polygon data (meaning: counts, rates, or percents pertaining to a geographic area)
And lastly, Developing procedures and best practices for ongoing integration and visual presentation of new datasets.
Another strategy of Healthy Chicago is to increase the availability of public health data through the City’s website.
To that end, we now make use of the City’s Open Data Portal to push out frequent updates of indicator data related to births, deaths, infectious diseases, environmental health, hospital discharges, and public health assets.
The way it works, we don’t provide any data directly to the Chicago Health Atlas website; the developers subscribe to our feed on the Data Portal, and can update their views with new data as it becomes available.
For epidemiologists in our department, the most frequent requests we get are for summary statistics by Chicago neighborhood.
The majority of users are NOT seeking record level data sets, but instead, they just want US to do the calculations and provide indicators.
Before the data portal expansion, our Department published summary statistics at the neighborhood level about once every 3 to 4 years in the form of a paper report of a PDF posted online.
For many content areas we would generate data objects, such as tables, maps, or statistical graphics, primarily in response to requests.
So, in other words, we were doing a high volume of customized analyses of the source data rather than having of library of reference data sets to pull the statistics from or refer users to.
Flu App Example using data portal flu vaccination sites. Now 4 different retail clinics joined the app with us.
FoodBorneChi is an example of Technology supporting Healthy Chicago that complements current telephone reporting using 311.
It uses Twitter as a sentinel to search for mentions of “food poisoning.”
In order to determine if a tweet is relevant to the city's interests, it must be classified as relevant or noise.
This classification is done via machine learning. In this process, a mathematical, natural language model is constructed using existing tweets and a human classifier.
Once the model is completely built, future tweets can be applied to the model, resulting in automatic classification. When a tweet is classified correctly, it then becomes actionable, and can be routed to the proper municipal department.
Currently, we have completed 50 inspections through this app.
Future uses can include emergency preparedness, disease outbreaks, etc.
The steps a resident goes through to report a suspected food poisoning incident are easy.
When users respond to our Twitter @-reply;
They fill out a simple food poisoning report form on Foodborne.
This form is submitted to the City of Chicago via its Open311 interface.
This submission is equivalent to the person calling Chicago 311 to report their food poisoning.
The 311 software routes the submission to the Chicago Department of Public Health, where investigators review the submission and take action, including conducting inspections, based on the report.
The inspection in detail is also updated into the Data Portal.
