"Cost Model for Local Public Health," Jill Briggs, RN, MS, MPH, Chisago County Public Health, Chisago County, North Branch, Minn.

Public health leaders must be prepared to make the case for adequate funding and be prepared to show the magnitude of funding changes needed. During this Webinar, participants will learn about a Robert Wood Johnson executive nurse project that embraced a partnership approach to complete a time series analysis of local public health cost performance and outcomes and a gaps analysis of underfunded and not funded public health services. Once the gap was determined, a first-ever cost model was developed that answered the question: “How much would it cost to provide Essential Local Activities in Minnesota?”  This will also be a session at the APHA Annual Meeting on Monday, Nov. 9, 2009: 9:10 a.m.
