| Data that can be useful for conducting epidemiological and public health program research is widely available through several ongoing surveys, administrative databases, and other government sponsored data collection efforts. In addition, methods for evaluating and analyzing data from such research continues to advance, often far faster than practioner's can apply these techniques. The purpose of this session is to update the participant to new applications of statistical software, novel estimation techniques and public health database resources. At the end of this session, the participant should be able to increase their ability to access, manage and analyze data for epidemiological, public policy and evaluation research. | |||
| Learning Objectives: At the end of this session the participant should be able to 1. Cite the advantages of using the "Net-Benefit" concept to help understand health economic evaluations 2. Outline the constructs and measurement issues of "public health preparedness" 3. Become familiar with health data information resources and methods, including: 1) linkage data methods utilizing databases such as NHANES I - III, NHIS and Medicare and Medicaid, 2) new data structures for Hospital Cost Report Information system and 3) innovative ways to obtain public access health-data using the National Archives and Records Administration databases 4. Outline new statistical routines and methods including, randomization schemes for community trials, multilevel statistical analysis, comparative fit indices and statistical software for linear mixed models 5. Describe the usefulness of focus groups for evaluating bioterrorism training | |||
