Abstract

Health information is critical to surveillance and assessment of public health threats, population and disease trends, management of clinical services, completion of immunizations, identification of disease trends, and communication with community partners. This article explores how a medium-sized local health department using best practices in informatics could implement and use informatics to improve the practice of public health.
