  • Title: Estimated expenditures for core public health functions--selected states, October 1992-September 1993.
    Author: Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
    Journal: MMWR Morb Mortal Wkly Rep; 1995 Jun 09; 44(22):421, 427-9. PubMed ID: 7760789.
    Abstract:
    Core public health functions (i.e., essential public health services) are activities that public health departments and other partners undertake to protect and ensure the health of the public. Although total spending for public health programs in the United States has been estimated (1), expenditures for core public health functions have not been characterized. To characterize such expenditures, the Public Health Service (PHS) and the Public Health Foundation (PHF) surveyed senior public health officials in eight states (Connecticut, Illinois, Iowa, Missouri, New York, Oregon, Rhode Island, and Texas [combined 1990 population: 61.4 million]) and used the survey data to estimate national expenditures for core functions during fiscal year 1993 (October 1992-September 1993). This report summarizes the results of that survey (2).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
