A Ride in the Time Machine
We have proposed needed information management capabilities for future US health departments predicated on trends in health care reform and health information technology. Regardless of whether health departments provide direct clinical services (and many will), they will manage unprecedented quantities of sensitive information for the public health core functions of assurance and assessment, including population-level health surveillance and metr…
A Functional Public Health Surveillance System
Lenert and Sundwall identify opportunities and challenges of the Meaningful Use (MUse) incentive programs that advance standardized electronic reporting to health departments at a time when there is limited funding to upgrade systems. We concur that cloud-based Platform as a Service (PaaS) is a possible remedy. However, we disagree with their conclusion that “the security risks inherent in BioSense 2.0’s public cloud implementation may make this …

Heat Wave Morbidity and Mortality, Milwaukee, Wis, 1999 vs 1995
Objectives. This study examined whether differences in heat alone, as opposed to public health interventions or other factors, accounted for the reduction in heat-related deaths and paramedic emergency medical service (EMS) runs between 1995 and 1999 during 2 heat waves occurring in Milwaukee, Wis. Methods. Two previously described prediction models were adapted to compare expected and observed heat-related morbidity and mortality in 1999 based o…
