Modernizing public health ensures that systems are resilient, adaptive, and prepared to tackle both traditional and emerging health threats while promoting long-term health and wellness in communities. A data-driven approach that strengthens population health by enabling secure sharing of standardized health information across organizations provides an infrastructure that connects public health agencies, healthcare providers, and researchers to support disease surveillance, outbreak response, and evidence-based policy decisions while protecting individual privacy. Learn from subject matter experts about public health policy and funding, current success stories and barriers, and future opportunities.
