Thursday, Feb 25, 2016 (All day)
Location: Lexington, KY United States

Led by the University of Washington, the Public Health Practice-Based Research Networks (PBRNs) in WashingtonWisconsin, and New York and investigators from Oregon are studying the structure of LHD shared services using measures established in previous studies.

Combined with available LHD-level financial information, the study examines longitudinal relationships between LHD shared services and the costs, volume, and quality of services delivered. This study is one of four active Dissemination and Implementation Research to Improve Value (DIRECTIVE) projects conducted by Public Health PBRNs.
