Health Data Analytics

Data leveraged as a strategic asset helps to improve the delivery of essential health services. Our data analysts partner with organizations to transform data into actionable insights that improve healthcare delivery and lower costs.

Our evaluation experts ensure a successful, flexible, and inclusive approach to program evaluation. Our professional, multidisciplinary teams involve various levels of community stakeholders in the evaluation process and provide quality program improvement findings that lead to actionable and meaningful health outcomes for our communities.

Program Development and Implementation

The Health Affairs Institute brings new programs to life through rigorous development and implementation. We guide program improvement activities that lead to meaningful health outcomes for local communities by providing a professional understanding of how to synthesize data with practical experience.

Project Management

Working together to achieve a shared strategic vision, we ensure people and teams are focused and collaborating across departments.

Public Impact Research

Public impact research shapes communities by informing the development of data-driven policy solutions that address population health challenges. These data-driven policy solutions are informed by community needs assessments, environmental scans, and technical expertise.

Policy Analysis and Evaluation

We engage community members and partners to collect valuable perspectives on the social and educational impact of policy, identifying potential policy options that could address issues and then compare those options to choose the most effective, efficient, and feasible approach.

Training and Technical Assistance

We design custom training curricula and increase operational capacity to develop a strong and thriving workforce.

Survey Research

Health Affairs Institute offers survey research services that empower our partners with reliable information translatable to insights on issues that matter for Appalachia.
