Abstract:
:Priorities for improving the health of our nation include rebuilding the public health infrastructure through increasing assessment, policy development, and assurance capacities in our communities. Capacity building necessitates formalizing and strengthening public health practice linkages to achieve Year 2000 objectives. Determining progress in achieving objectives requires development of public health infrastructure surveillance and data system capabilities. The Tracking Center of Tracking and Outreach Program for St. Louis (TOPS), through unique collaboration among academic and practice partners, laid the foundation for a Regional Integrated Information System (RIIS) by developing a centralized maternal-child health data base for prenatal and pediatric care providers. The RIIS model provides an example of a capacity building system designed to provide public health surveillance, assessment, planning, and evaluation capabilities. Medical Subject Headings (MeSH): health information systems, prenatal care, immunization, maternal-child health care, public health surveillance.
