Why Care About Informatics?
• Informatics is central to support and accelerate the transformation of public health practice in the e-health era
• Information systems are the key link between public health practice and healthcare
• Informatics supports the business of public health

Goal of Informatics
Getting the right information, to the right person, at the right time to support them doing something constructive to advance health

Informatics is not IT
Informatics:• Describes the information requirements• Understands the users• Designs the information solutions to:• Link program performance measures to
information tools used to support the program

What Public Health Informatics Needs to Do
Put simply, we should help by:1. making data sharable interoperability2. being clear about what systems must do to
be worth their cost requirements analysis3. sharing what we know with those who need
to know it knowledge management
![Page 13: Public Health Informatics](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081422/56815e76550346895dccf88b/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Practice of Public Health Informatics
• Structuring data in ways that correctly convey their meaning
• Translate program needs into technology guidance and/or designs that lead to systems that work
• Aid in the sharing and dissemination of health knowledge
