35 Background New York State Previous State Health Improvement Plan (SHIP): Prevention Agenda 2008-2012 Current SHIP: Prevention Agenda 2013-2018 New York State SHA and SHIP development in 2012: Assessed progress of 2008-2012 cycle; Developed State community health needs assessment (SHA); and Developed State Health Improvement Plan (SHIP) Materials available: http://www.health.ny.gov/prevention/prevention_agenda/2013-2017/background.htm NYS PHAB application with pre-requisites submitted December 2012

36 Prevention Agenda 2013-2018: Steered by Ad Hoc Leadership Group Collaborative effort led by committee appointed by Public Health and Health Planning Council, including leaders from more than 140 organizations (e.g., Healthcare, Business, Academia, CBOs, Local Health Departments, OMH and OASAS). Final Priorities based on active participation from members of committee and stakeholder feedback.

37 State Health Assessment Conducted late 2011 to early 2012 and presented to statewide stakeholders in February 2012 to help select five priorities for 2013-2018: Progress to Date on Prevention Agenda 2008-2012 Description of Population and General Health Status

Progress to Date on Prevention Agenda 2008-2012 (State previous SHIP) 38 Goal was to improve the health status of NYS population for the 10 health priority areas via state and local collaboration and interventions with focus on prevention rather than clinical activities. We assessed and summarized progress to date of PA 2008-2012 Collaboration between LHDs and hospitals on the implementation of local health improvement plans regarding priorities selected, partners, progress of implementation and gaps and lessons learned Status of leading indicators in the 10 areas, including disparities (summary on slide 20) http://www.health.ny.gov/prevention/prevention_agenda/2013-2017/docs/progress_to_date.pdf

77 PHAB feedback on NYS accreditation application and site visit The New York State Department of Health has an outstanding partnership with stakeholders and community organizations including local health departments. The level of collaboration was clearly evident in multiple site visit meetings. The strength of collaboration is most evident in the success of NYS DOH's state health improvement plan called "The Prevention Agenda." NYS DOH has been highly successful engaging partners across the state in the implementation of the Prevention Agenda. NYS DOH has used the local health department contracting process to guarantee commitment to community level implementation. well-organized and informative. The process of combining the review of an older SHIP with a new assessment leading to an updated SHIP seemed to work well for partners.. impressively evidence-based, easy to understand and comprehensive
