Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Health Services Research
  • Health Policy

Background:

  • Healthy People 2010 (HP2010) set national health objectives.
  • Goals included increasing healthy life years and eliminating health disparities.
  • 467 specific objectives with targets were established.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe techniques for measuring progress toward HP2010 goals.
  • To outline methods for monitoring health improvements and disparity reduction.
  • To ensure consistency in progress monitoring across objectives.

Main Methods:

  • Adopted a minimum template of subgroups for population-based objectives.
  • Convened a workgroup from U.S. Department of Health and Human Services agencies.
