The public is inundated with data, both in where data are ubiquitously collected and in how organizations are using data to drive public sector and commercial decisions. The public health data system is no exception to this flood of data, both in growing data volume and variety. However, what are collected and analyzed about the health status of the nation, how particular data and measures are prioritized for parsimony, and how those data provide a signal for where to invest to address health inequities are in dire need of a reboot. As with other articles in this supplement, this article builds from a literature review, an environmental scan, and deliberations from the National Commission to Transform Public Health Data Systems. The article summarizes what data should be included and identifies where the technology and data sectors can contribute to fill current gaps to measure equity, positive health, and well-being.

现代公共卫生数据系统应包含哪些数据

公众充斥着数据，无论是在哪里收集数据，还是在组织如何使用数据来推动公共部门和商业决策。公共卫生数据系统也不例外，数据量和种类都在不断增长。然而，关于国家健康状况的收集和分析，特定数据和措施如何优先考虑简约，以及这些数据如何为解决健康不公平问题的投资提供信号，这些都迫切需要重新启动。与本增刊中的其他文章一样，本文建立在文献综述、环境扫描以及国家委员会转变公共卫生数据系统的审议基础之上。
