Advancing chronic disease practice through the CDC Data Modernization Initiative
Carney TJ , Wiltz JL , Davis K , Briss PA , Hacker K . Prev Chronic Dis 2023 20 E110 Chronic disease affects 6 in 10 adults in the US, while 4 in 10 adults live with multiple chronic diseases (1). Chronic diseases represent one of the nation’s leading causes of disability and drivers of the nation’s $4.1 trillion in annual health care spending (1). Chronic conditions including heart disease, cancer, stroke, diabetes, and chronic kidney disease dominate the leading causes of death. Furthermore, leading lifestyle risk factors in the US include tobacco use, poor nutrition, physical inactivity, and excessive alcohol use (1). | | Chronic disease prevention and control necessitates a comprehensive strategy to prevent disease (2–4), which is needed now more than ever (5). Information systems innovations are needed to advance health activities and outcomes and to allow decision makers and practitioners to act (4,6–8). Chronic disease data are a foundation that can inform interventions to promote healthy communities, support healthy behaviors and lifestyles, and facilitate effective and coordinated chronic disease prevention and health promotion (5,9). The benefits of an improved chronic disease data landscape include improved management of chronic disease programs, enhanced communication, data exchange, and coordination between federal, state, tribal, local, and territorial health departments and their partners. Additionally, efforts aimed at enhancing chronic disease surveillance practices will better enable a learning health system, precision public health, and improved situational awareness that will ultimately allow people across the US to live longer, healthier lives (10–12). |
