Population Health, Outcomes Research, and Prevention

The goal of this project was to expand an existing public health law curriculum to incorporate lessons on population health outcomes research, extra-legal advocacy, and the population health perspective. The project also created opportunities for students not only to read about and discuss concepts, but also to employ the lessons more practically through exercises and by writing white papers on public health law reform topics relevant to population health in Missouri. To do this, the project expanded an existing didactic course and created a new credit-bearing, experiential “Lab.”

Health Outcomes Research

Many of the datasets provided by the federal government have been well cleaned. However, like many other datasets collected for health outcomes research, these datasets contain errors and missing values. Both errors and missing values should be accommodated unless they represent less than 5% of the total values in the dataset. If the proportion of missing values is greater, then it is necessary to accommodate them in some way; otherwise, the missing values can impact the outcome of the study. Errors are more difficult to work with because it is not possible to know just what the proportion of errors actually is. In this chapter, we examine both errors and missing values and provide some techniques on how to investigate them.
