Ohio Profile and Performance and Database Reports
The readiness project was tasked with assessing the quality of the Ohio Health Department Profile and Performance Database (OPPD) and making recommendations to the Ohio Department of Health (ODH) on potential improvements to the system and alignment with assessment data. This report lists potential improvements that could be made to expand both the usefulness and the usability of the OPPD system highlighting the assessment process and recommendations suggested by CPHP.
