NHLBI Strategic Plan
Why does NHLBI need NCHS data?
Surveillance systems that allow for the rapid analysis and communication of health status are needed to provide data on the effectiveness of community-based and population-based interventions.

National Hospital Discharge Survey
Strengths: National sample of hospitals, discharge codes give reasonable disease classifications
Weaknesses: Diagnoses are not validated, race incomplete, counts episodes of hospitalization so person could count more than once, quality of care indicators, redesign in 1988

Results from Health Interview Survey
Strengths: National sample, larger size, mostly consistent questions
Weaknesses: Change in questions make trends difficult to interpret, data only based on questionnaires

Questions...
■ Is there a need for a new surveillance and research infrastructure? Could existing data collection efforts be expanded
and/or integrated?
■How should surveillance data be collected and used to enhance research to address health disparities?
■How might relevant stakeholders collaborate in surveillance, determination of research priorities, and development of public policy?

IOM Charge
An Institute of Medicine committee is meeting to develop a framework for building a national chronic disease surveillance system focused primarily on cardiovascular disease that is capable of providing data for analysis of race, ethnic, socioeconomic, and geographic region disparities in incidence and prevalence, functional health outcomes, measured risk factors, and clinical care delivery.
