Workshop & Webcast
Exploring Data and Metrics of Value at the Intersection of Health Care and
Transportation
Submit Abstracts by April 17, 2016.
TRB and the Health and Medicine Division, both of the National Academies of Sciences,
Engineering, and Medicine, are holding a workshop + webcast on June 6-7, 2016 in
Washington, D.C. that will explore the interface of health care and transportation. Submit
abstracts by April 17, 2016.
The workshop + webcast will showcase local examples of formal and informal health care
and transportation partnerships; explore ways to use data to estimate the value of
transportation to health care in various settings; examine performance measures pertinent
to the relationship between transit/transportation services and health care outcomes; and,
discuss what is needed to calculate the return on investment in terms of health outcomes.
(For example: Does providing transportation access lead to improved health?). A workshop
summary based on the day’s proceedings will be prepared by an independent rapporteur.
