Module 3: The Demand for Health Care

Determinants of Health

One of the biggest questions that surrounds the demand for health care is “WHAT DETERMINES HEALTH”?

County Health Rankings & Roadmaps (CHR&R) is a program of the University of Wisconsin Population Health Institute supported by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation.  The information provided demonstrates health rankings by state and county.  Explore the health status of the county where you live and/or work.

We may not be as deeply divided as we think -- at least when it comes to health, says Rebecca Onie.

This is an excellent classic TED talk. For more information, click here!
