Data is the cornerstone of community health planning. Our Research and Analytics team produces analyses that ground conversations in a fact-based understanding of regional health issues.
We developed a new classification of geography that promotes equity by prioritizing data that represent the lived experience of residents, and better reflects regional geography with more granularity, especially in areas considered rural.
Common Ground Health is on a journey to embed data equity principles into our research and analytic processes to ensure that our work is inclusive, equitable, and minimizes potential biases.
