Goal 2: 2-Year Milestones

Success is measured by 2-year milestones1

Goal 2: Accelerate access to analytic and automated solutions to support public health investigations and advance health equity

Make tools available so STLTs and other public health decision-makers can better use public health data to address health disparities.

Milestones by End of 2023

At least 2 automated reports using CDC’s healthcare databases available within CDC and across STLTs to identify and address health disparities

Milestones by End of 2024

At least 2 automated reports using CDC’s healthcare databases available within CDC and across STLTs to identify and address health disparities

Potential impact: Improved data available to epidemiologists (e.g., 2x critical access hospitals sending case data electronically), enabling faster health equity analyses

1. Accomplishing the Public Health Data Goals requires collaboration and partnership with STLTs, healthcare partners, and other federal agencies
