KALUSUGAN AT KAAYUSAN
Ang malusog na komunidad ay lumilikha ng isang malusog na ekonomiya at mga pamilyang umaasa sa sarili. Gayunpaman, kapag mahirap mahanap ang de-kalidad na pangangalagang medikal, at hindi pa rin kayang bayaran ang kinakailangang saklaw, makakaapekto ito sa mga resulta ng kalusugan at pangkalahatang kalusugan at ekonomiya ng indibidwal, pamilya, at komunidad.
Ang data ng kalusugan ay nagpapakita ng mga umuusbong na uso at mga lugar na nangangailangan ng mga bagong patakaran o sistema upang ang mga mamamayan ay mabuhay nang mas matagal, mas malusog na buhay na nagdaragdag ng produktibidad at kaunlaran sa ekonomiya.

It also considers factors like income, education, and housing that can impact health outcomes. On top of that, it includes behavioral data related to health habits, substance use, and mental health, as well as demographic breakdowns to highlight health disparities among different groups. Additionally, it looks at mortality rates for various causes and age groups and tracks trends over time.This data gives us a comprehensive look at health trends and outcomes in the region, showing both positive trends and areas that need attention and intervention. By analyzing this data, we can identify priorities, develop targeted interventions, and work toward improving community residents' overall quality of life and well-being.

HEALTH INSURANCE
Ang saklaw ng segurong pangkalusugan ay itinuturing na isa sa mga pinakamahusay na tagapagpahiwatig ng pag-access sa pangangalagang pangkalusugan. Ang pangangalagang pangkalusugan para sa hindi nakaseguro ay isang alalahanin sa buong komunidad. Ang espesyal na interes ay ang katotohanan na mayroong malaking hindi pagkakapantay-pantay ng lahi sa paligid ng pag-access sa pangangalagang pangkalusugan at mga rate ng nakaseguro.
Ang mga gastos sa medikal sa Estados Unidos ay napakataas, kaya ang mga taong walang segurong pangkalusugan ay maaaring hindi kayang bayaran ang medikal na paggamot o mga inireresetang gamot. Mas maliit din ang posibilidad na makakuha sila ng mga regular na checkup at screening, kaya kung magkasakit sila ay hindi sila magpapagamot hanggang sa maging mas advanced ang kondisyon at samakatuwid ay mas mahirap at magastos na gamutin. Maraming maliliit na negosyo ang hindi makapag-alok ng health insurance sa mga empleyado dahil sa tumataas na premium ng health insurance.
Ang pambansang target sa kalusugan ng "Healthy People 2020" mula sa US Department of Health and Human Services ay bawasan ang proporsyon ng mga taong walang health insurance sa 0%.

SPOTLIGHT NG KOMUNIDAD
Pagbabago para sa Mas Mabuting Kalusugan
Kilalang Kalusuganay nakatuon sa pagtuklas ng mga panganib sa kalusugan nang maaga. AngHealthy Nevada Project, isa sa pinakamalaking pag-aaral sa kalusugan ng populasyon sa mundo, pinagsasama-sama ang genetic, klinikal, at environmental data para maghatid ng personalized na insight sa kalusugan sa mga taga-Nevada nang walang bayad.
Ang Healthy Nevada Project ay may higit sa 55,000 kalahok hanggang ngayon. Ang pagkuha ng mga kalahok na may maagang natuklasan ay mahalaga upang makapagsimula ang paggamot. Ang access sa mga kalahok ay pinalawak sa mga nasa Northern, Southern, at rural Nevada.
Isinasama ng Healthy Nevada Project ang genomics sa plano ng klinikal na pangangalaga ng pasyente. Gamit ang genetic na impormasyong ito, magkakaroon ang Renown ng kakayahang mas maunawaan kung paano nakakaapekto ang mga gene ng isang tao kung paano sila tumugon sa isang gamot at nag-aalok ng mas tumpak na naka-target na reseta sa bawat tao. Ang mabisang komunikasyon tungkol sa kahalagahan ng genetic screening sa komunidad ay medyo naging hadlang.
Ang pananaliksik ng programang ito ay nakakatulong na magbigay daan para sa mga komunidad sa buong estado sa pamamagitan ng paggamit ng data ng proyekto upang matulungan ang mga mananaliksik na isulong ang kaalaman at pag-unawa sa mga genetic na sakit.
