North Carolina Community Health Information Portal
The North Carolina Community Health Information Portal (NC-HIP) is a web-based application designed to allow researchers, public health professionals, hospital executives and other policymakers to generate new insights from existing public and private databases. NC-HIP allows users to geo-map their own health data alongside major public health data sets. With minimal training, users can upload their own Excel spreadsheets, juxtapose them with public health databases and transform the combined data into powerful, actionable visuals. Mapping down to data at the local level gives users a critical decision support tool useful in community assessments, public health interventions, budgeting, grant proposals, care management, and the allocation of resources. For example, overlaying data on access to health care services with disease trends may provide insight into what types of populations and locations may be underserved for specific services.
