Description:Chronic disease (CD), maternal and child health (MCH) and oral health (OH) are three specific program areas within state and territorial health agencies. These programs are responsible for monitoring, studying, predicting and preventing a wide range of diseases and conditions that occur throughout the lifespan. To accomplish these tasks, CD, MCH and OH programs need access to a cadre of skilled epidemiologists – health professionals with specialty training in the design of population studies, the collection and analysis of data, the interpretation of empirical findings and application to public-health practice, and the development and maintenance of surveillance systems to monitor health problems and hazards in target populations.
The purpose of this report is to present findings related to CD/MCH/OH epidemiology capacity from the 2013 core ECA and the CD/MCH/OH supplemental modules as well as trends where comparable information is available. Funding: This publication was supported by Cooperative Agreement Number 5U380T000143-02 from CDC.
