CONCLUSION
 Overall, similar health outcomes as other
  communities
 But, chronic disease is an issue
     Cholesterol, Hypertension, Tobacco usage
     Access to care: declining health insurance coverage

   Moving forward,
     Continue positive trends: exercise, healthy
      foods, managed care penetration
     Implement prevention & health promotion
      programs, improved coordination of care, expand
      insurance coverage

  1. Defining population health: concerns the health outcomes of a group of individuals, including the distribution of such outcomes within the groupObjectives of population health studies: describe, explain, predict, control.Describe the state of health of the population and identify prevalent health problemsExplain why the state of health is the way it is and why certain health problems occurPredict health effects and strategies for risk avoidancePrevent disease and promote healthWhen we can describe, explain, predict, and control the health of a population, we can answer why why some people are healthier than others
  2. Conceptual framework to think about why some people are healthier than others
  3. For HC, comparable to other places (Capital City and the US).
  4. Comparatively across HC, CC, USA (HC is healthy)Objective: show that HC is relatively the same- no major outliers, Overall HC is comparatively healthy compared to Capital City and the USA, mortality rates are similarBut within population when comparing mortality rates in total, more people are dying from chronic diseases such as heart disease, followed by cancer and then stroke
  5. HC internally (HC is doing poorly in chronic diseases)Within HC internally, clear distinction that chronic diseases are a major problem. The 3 leading causes of death (other than other) are related to chronic disease. as you can see heart disease, and MN (eg cancer), and stroke are the primary causes of death. In this community health profile we are going to be discussing heart disease and cancer in further detail.If you want to talk about “other causes” just mention that while they do make up a significant portion of the death rate as we don’t know what they specifically are we can’t make any community health related conclusions regarding them.The health indicator framework will be applied as applicable to chronic diseases to describe, explain, predict, control
  6. Conceptual framework to think about why some people are healthier than others
  7. Relatively speaking, HC has a similar mortality rate to nearby CC . This suggests that the overall health of the population is comparable to other populations. Age does not appear to be a contributing factor to the chronic disease issue.
  8. As you can see the populations of the towns in Hillsboro County are relatively stagnant. The exception is Jasper which has had a population which is steadily growing.Population is not increasing in HC, so is not significant factor contributing to chronic disease issuePopulation trend doesn’t relate to chronic diseaseThis is a point to keep in mind for when we discuss health systems
  9. While there are relatively the same amount of people employed in HC as CC/State
  10. Conceptual framework to think about why some people are healthier than others
  11. -no insurance coverage is high (spiked 5 years ago) in the community (as seen in the red line) -no health insurance – no access to needed health coverage, which has negative impact on chronic disease in the community
  12. -for those with health insurance, the health system appears to be serving them relatively well (people not coming back as much – hospitals achieving the right outcomes)-also, the observed slightly higher readmission rate within 30 days may suggest that the population is experiencing problems with chronic disease
  13. -for those with health insurance, the health system appears to be serving them relatively well-health insurance coverage is low, but for those with, the health delivery system seem to be fine
  14. Conceptual framework to think about why some people are healthier than others
  15. Compared to Capital City and the US, HC has the worst mortality rates in cardiovascular health and cancer (leading causes of death for HC)
  16. HC has higher heart disease mortality rate than both Capital City and the U.S.Currently within HC, 35% of population is dying from diseases of the heart
  17. First behavior under cardiovascular health – cholesterol awarenessMeasured people who’ve had their cholesterol checked within the last five years (not so many people), cholesterol checked, and those who do have high cholesterol (we have most ppl who have cholesterol compared to CC and state wise)
  18. Hypertension can lead to cardiovascular diseaseHC has the highest hypertension prevalence compared to CC and StateGraph: people who know they have high blood pressure (prevelance)
  19. -so, obesity may not be significant contributing factor to chronic diseases… but further research needed (for example age-adjusted)-for those that have high BMI, may be factor in prevalence/incidence of chronic disease
  20. HC has comparatively similar mortality rates to CC and USA. However, internally shows that cancer is the second leading cause of death20% of population with HC has died from cancer
  21. - HCis the worst in smoking compared to CC and the State, higher proportion of smokers everyday in HC = correlates to less former smokers in HC-smoking contributes to high rate of chronic disease, specifically cancer
  22. -because sizable percentage of population is employed in blue-collar sectors (agriculture and manufacturing) there may be a higher chance of exposure to factors that contribute to chronic disease conditions such as poor cardiovascular health and cancer. In manufacturing this might be: in agriculture this might be: pollutants – factors in cancer, according to a Johns Hopkins study from 1994 published by the American Journal of Epidemiology. http://aje.oxfordjournals.org/cgi/content/abstract/139/11/1055
  23. Positive parts of health
  24. -indicates type of health insurance has changed – fee for service to managed care-this is a positive trend because managed care seeks to better manage chronic disease-as trend continues, we expect improved outcomes with respect to chronic disease
  25. Positive parts of health
