CHSA Update: Indicators



Sub-committee held meetings in June and August
Committee reviewed selection of the “top 5” indicators for
each of the 11 domains (recall these indicators were presented
at the June 3rd HIP-C meeting)
Committee attempted to identify potential data sources as
well as potential challenges for the selected indicators
Worked with CASE MPH program to identify intern to assist
with the CHSA (Jenny Shin was selected in August)
Brought CHSA intern up to speed on the HIP-Cuyahoga
initiative
Community Health Status Assessment
11 Domains of the CHSA data:
1. Demographic characteristics
2. Socioeconomic characteristics
3. Health resource availability
4. Quality of life
5. Behavioral risk factors
6. Environmental health indicators
7. Social and mental health
8. Maternal and child health
9. Death, illness, and injury
10. Infectious disease
11. Sentinel events
CHSA Update: Indicators – cont’d
Things that are being considered:
 Years data are available
 Smallest geographic level available
 Will data be available over time for trending?
 Can the indicator be impacted over time (i.e. respond
to an intervention or secular change over time)?
 Limitations (e.g. internal and external validity, face
validity, consistency, etc…)
CHSA Update: Indicators – cont’d


CHSA intern started a “level 2” scan of the data
sources initially purposed by the sub-committee to
