State Investments in Evidence-based Policymaking: The Emergence of State Health Data Organizations

State policymakers and regulators are frequently confronted with questions about the performance of our health care system, and find themselves without the necessary information to effectively respond. State leaders across the country–and across the political spectrum–have recognized the need for more coordinated and centralized health care system information and established state health data organizations (HDO) to provide a foundation for evidence-based policymaking and rigorous data-driven policy debate.

Join Manatt Health for a live webinar with state HDO leaders from across the country to celebrate the release of the country’s first state HDO framework and to discuss:

  • The value of state HDO and how they can support state health information needs;
  • Model health care system reporting; and
  • Key considerations for establishing effective state HDO. 

This webinar, and the paper on which is based, is presented with support the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation.
