Health Medical Homework Help

DUCM Person with Medical Insurance and Health Services Discussion

 

I’m studying and need help with a Public Health question to help me learn.

This reading will take you through a self-guided tour of Healthy People 2020 and Healthy People 2030. Please come to class prepared to discuss.

1. Visit the “Healthy People” website and spend some time orienting yourself via the FAQs:

https://health.gov/our-work/healthy-people-2030/ab…

2. Then, visit Healthy People 2020’s progress report. Pick at least one “improving” or “target met” objective, one “little or no detectable change” objective, and one “getting worse” objective to learn more in depth.

https://www.healthypeople.gov/2020/data-search/midcourse-review/lhi (Links to an external site.)

Think:

    • Who is most impacted by this health topic?
    • Do the interventions listed address the upstream factors influencing health?
    • Why or why not do you think progress was made to improve the objective?

3. Finally. look at what has changed in those 3 topics between Healthy People 2020 and Healthy People 2030 by using the “search” feature on this page. (Note: you may need to broaden your search criteria. For example, “adult smoking” returns no results, but “smoking” does).
