Principles, Core Functions, and Performance Mesaures for Integrated Information Systems
In support of the Connections Community of Practice, the Public Health Informatics Institute collaborated with state and local public health agencies, health care providers, and families to:
- define the underlying principles and core functions of integrated child health information systems.
- develop performance measures for public health agencies to assess the effectiveness of an integrated child health information system
