TWO BIG THEMES:
1. Continue planning and priority setting with attention to:
Key elements for successful strategic “management”
2. Continue role as INNOVATORS with focus on:
How State Oral Health Plan/Policy Tool objectives are met

Theme #1: Implementing a Strategic Plan
What the experts tell us:• A 2005 study of strategic planning was conducted by
municipal governments
• Study revealed factors useful in predicting the success of strategic planning in the public sector.

Study findings
• Factors can be classified under one of five key components of the strategic planning process:
– Stakeholder Involvement – Planning Elements– Budgeting Process– Performance Management– Performance Measurement
Children’s Dental Health Project | 1020 19th Street NW, Suite 400 Washington, DC 20036 | 202.833.8288 | www.cdhp.org
A few factors have the MOST impact
Of all the factors identified, 7 were found to account for nearly half of the overall impact of a strategic plan.

7 Factors that Dominate – #’s 1-4
Performance Management:1. Objectives for department heads and managers come
from the overall strategic plan.2. Annual evaluations of department heads are based on
accomplishing strategic goals and objectives.3. Performance data is tracked over time to assess results
of strategic plan.4. Performance measures associated with the strategic
plan are regularly reported to the public.

7 Factors that Dominate – #’s 5-7
Budgeting Process5. Budget requests and resource allocations are closely tied
to strategic goals and objectives.Planning Elements6. Feasibility assessment of proposed strategies is
conducted (NOTE: This is an important element of the Oral Health Policy Tool and any strategic plan)
Stakeholder Involvement7. Citizens and other external stakeholders are involved
in developing the strategic plan.

CDC Cooperative Agreement helped you to “dress for success”
CDC has provided a “blueprint” for :
• Logic model for a state plan• Sample components• Review index tool• Framework and flow charts• Funds work with Oral Health Policy Tool

New phase: Strategic Management
Strategic ManagementStrategic planning + Performance Management– Both are processes that are repeated– Regular revisiting and evaluation are critical– Engage stakeholders at each level– Performance of management and ground-level staff
equally important– Key: produce and learn from measurement data
Children’s Dental Health Project | 1020 19th Street NW, Suite 400 Washington, DC 20036 | 202.833.8288 | www.cdhp.org
What about moving on
Identified Policy Priorities?
Children’s Dental Health Project | 1020 19th Street NW, Suite 400 Washington, DC 20036 | 202.833.8288 | www.cdhp.org
Fits under State Oral Health Plan (SOHP) + Policy Tool “priorities”?
Both SOHP + Policy Tool appear to support action on Preventive Services for Children
State Oral Health Plan “Vision Element” suggests making MANDATORY the currently OPTIONAL Dental Component in the MDEC Early Childhood Screening program standards.
Policy Tool Priority #1 – Children ages 0-5
Children’s Dental Health Project | 1020 19th Street NW, Suite 400 Washington, DC 20036 | 202.833.8288 | www.cdhp.org
Making the case for early prevention
Tap INNOVATIVE data collection ideas from a August 2009 MN Oral Health Stakeholder Meeting:
• collect oral health related data on school-aged children.* What number of school days lost to dental concerns? School readiness is a cross-cutting concern!
• Survey parents on understanding of the importance of preventive dental care? Address root causes – do parents believe they can influence?
• Identify dental activities are already occurring in the school (dental volunteers, sealants, etc.)? What lessons can be learned?
And for earlier ages:• What are primary care doctors doing on prevention; e.g. varnishing?
* MN example: Bloomington, MN study (2003-07) revealed 1 in 4 students with visible dental health needs

Policy change
CURRENT: Minnesota Statutes 121A.17 SCHOOL BOARD RESPONSIBILITIES.
(d) A board may offer additional components such as nutritional, physical and dental assessments
Children’s Dental Health Project | 1020 19th Street NW, Suite 400 Washington, DC 20036 | 202.833.8288 | www.cdhp.org
Challenges
If, for example, there is a focus on a School-Entry Screening only:
Challenges: • Very limited evidence of effectiveness of screening because data on referral & treatment has not been available
• Clear evidence that onset of dental disease happens well before school age (Policy Tool exercise may have focused on this as part of priority setting)
Children’s Dental Health Project | 1020 19th Street NW, Suite 400 Washington, DC 20036 | 202.833.8288 | www.cdhp.org
Performance Indicators (e.g., comparing values or positions)
For Example: 1) Support a policy that will identify # of children screened, referred and treated
– Baseline 1200– Target 5000– Actual 2100
2) Support a policy that will identify extent of utilization of expanded pediatric preventive oral services for ages 0-5
– Baseline 1200– Target 5000– Actual 2100
Describes more than one dimension! Inputs/outputs described at different stages of performance!

Theme #2 - Is this innovative?
It COULD be !SC is one of the few states innovating with a “screening” law
pilot program* that focuses and measures implementation with high-risk children and includes referral & treatment
What innovative things can be done to address prevention for kids ages 0 to 5?
*See SC’s “Word of Mouth” publication at: http://www.scdhec.gov/administration/library/CR-009945.pdf

How can stakeholders be STRATEGIC aboutinnovating on new policy initiatives?
It can’t hurt to follow a CHECKLIST!
See list of 16 checklist items in PART II of The Policy Tool Guidebook: Steps for Creating a Success Health Policy Tool Session (2009). Access at www.cdhp.org.

Checklist to move from plan to action
. . . A few examples
Children’s Dental Health Project | 1020 19th Street NW, Suite 400 Washington, DC 20036 | 202.833.8288 | www.cdhp.org
1-State the Priority Initiative
• Frame policy as a SMART objective.
• Know your goal with absolute clarity.– What do you want to
accomplish?– What do you want the
policymaking authority to do?
SpecificMeasurableAchievableRealisticTimed
Children’s Dental Health Project | 1020 19th Street NW, Suite 400 Washington, DC 20036 | 202.833.8288 | www.cdhp.org
9-Identify Others’ Success Stories
• Identify efforts from other states that have succeeded in attaining what you seek.
• How similar and different were those efforts from yours?
• What were the lessons learned?
Policymakers are favorably disposed to replicating successful efforts from other states!
Children’s Dental Health Project | 1020 19th Street NW, Suite 400 Washington, DC 20036 | 202.833.8288 | www.cdhp.org
13- Check to ensure what’s allowed
• Regularly update yourself on specific rules on advocacy and communications in your state
-- NEW ADMINISTRATIONS HAVE NEW RULES!
• Comply with AR-12 Lobbying Restrictions (PA 3022): CDC Grantees must avoid using CDC funds from being used to influence or promote pending legislation.
Children’s Dental Health Project | 1020 19th Street NW, Suite 400 Washington, DC 20036 | 202.833.8288 | www.cdhp.org
14-Refine Your Policy Action Plan
Work with coalition members, partners, and messengers to:– Have a unified voice!
– Agree on exactly who will do what, when, and with whom to carry out the plan.
– Determine how and by whom the process will be tracked, re-evaluated, modified, and sustained.
Children’s Dental Health Project | 1020 19th Street NW, Suite 400 Washington, DC 20036 | 202.833.8288 | www.cdhp.org
16- Be prepared with alternatives
Children’s Dental Health Project | 1020 19th Street NW, Suite 400 Washington, DC 20036 | 202.833.8288 | www.cdhp.org
What do colleagues from other states say is most important?
Assemble a passionate Policy Committee that
demonstrates entrepreneurial spirit, builds trust,
and stays accountable to the Coalition!
Children’s Dental Health Project | 1020 19th Street NW, Suite 400 Washington, DC 20036 | 202.833.8288 | www.cdhp.org
Given these ideas . . .
