The article discusses issues that arise in implementing computer-based decision support using childhood immunization as a source of examples. The examples include (1) IMM/Serve, a program that provides patient-specific recommendations, (2) informatics tools developed to help validate IMM/Serve's knowledge and functionality, and (3) tools developed to explore how computers can help ensure immunization data quality. Issues discussed include the complexity of creating computer-based decision support, the need for a continuing process of revision and testing as the health field evolves over time, and the potential value of computer-based tools to assist in this process.

A method for assessing the health status of communities has been under development for a decade at the University of South Florida. Known as CATCH (Comprehensive Assessment for Tracking Community Health), the method utilizes health status indicators from multiple data sources. With federal grant support, a unique data warehouse has been created to automate CATCH assessments and to enhance online analytical processing for efficient data browsing, knowledge discovery, and model testing. A comparison of two peer grouping methods (population size versus predicted age-adjusted mortality) is reviewed to demonstrate the warehouse capabilities.

Asthma management staff at eight Massachusetts managed care organizations (MCOs) were interviewed to learn the extent of inclusion of environmental prevention strategies in their asthma disease management policies. Six of the plans had formal asthma disease management programs, all reported to be based on the National Heart Lung and Blood Institute guidelines, but none followed these guidelines in their entirety. Three MCOs provided for home visits that included addressing environmental factors for severe asthmatics. Despite the limited role that MCOs appear to play in environmental prevention of asthma, the authors identify opportunities and encourage efforts to expand these programs.

Recent attention has focused on clean indoor air laws as part of a comprehensive tobacco control strategy. Clean air laws have the potential to reduce smoking behaviors as well as second-hand smoke. Many states do not have these laws but most firms now have policies restricting smoking indoors. The authors developed a framework intended to guide in the evaluation and improvement of clean air laws. This article examines the relationship between public laws and private restrictions and how smoking restrictions are likely to affect smoking behavior throughout the population. The article also discusses the information needed to better understand clean air laws and improve future public policy.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention began implementing a national Health Alert Network (HAN) to act as a communications infrastructure for response to bioterrorist events and other emergencies. State and local health departments are starting to use this communication system. The implementation and use of the HAN at the local level is different from use at the state and federal level. At the local level, the users are often responders in the field rather than in office settings and they may be in direct contact with hazards and agents. Monroe County, New York, developed a local HAN by forming an extranet among four county existing networks.

The Women's Health Alliance Intervention Study is a quasi-experimental intervention designed to test if county-based coalitions can increase breast and cervical cancer screening compliance among women aged 40 years and older living in rural communities. A number of interventions were designed and implemented by coalitions in four counties in north-central Wisconsin during a 2-year period. Four control counties in southwestern Wisconsin were identified for comparison. Judging from the results of this study, community-based intervention efforts can increase breast and cervical cancer screening compliance significantly among women living in rural communities.
