| Tools for Monitoring the
Impact of
Health Systems Changes
October 20, 1998
2:00-3:30 p.m. Eastern Time
This DataSpeak will highlight the work
of The Family Health Outcomes Project at the University of California at San Francisco
which has developed a number of tools to assist state and local health jurisdictions in
monitoring the impact of rapid health systems changes on the health of vulnerable MCH
populations. Dr. Gerry Oliva and her colleagues will discuss several of these tools
including: a set of indicators sensitive to access to primary care services; a set of
automated data templates with which to document trends; a monograph on selecting
indicators in a multicultural environment; and a set of guidelines for the measurement of
indicators where there are small numbers or in small geographic areas.
