HPIO is releasing the 2019 Health Value Dashboard!

As part of the release, we are hosting three forums to explore how Ohio's performance on health value has changed, as well as Ohio’s strengths, challenges and policy opportunities to drive improvement.

Each forum will highlight Ohio's health and explore key themes in the 2019 Health Value Dashboard including gaps in outcomes by race/ethnicity, income/education level and disability status. Speakers will address policy opportunities to advance improved population health, health equity and sustainable healthcare spending such as the implementation of population health improvement strategies and upstream collaboration.
