Maricopa County

2012-2017 Community Health Improvement Plan

Community Health Improvement Plan

The Maricopa County Community Health Improvement Plan (CHIP) is a community-wide action plan for addressing priority health issues in Maricopa County over the next five years, as determined through a comprehensive Community Health Assessment process conducted in 2012.

The CHIP identifies areas where we can have the largest impact on improving the quality of life for all Maricopa County residents, particularly the most vulnerable in our community, by reducing preventable illness and death.

The Maricopa County CHIP uses a framework similar to Arizona Chronic Disease Strategic Plan and the National Prevention Strategy, which align prevention strategies along four community sectors: Where We Live (Community), Where We Work (Worksites), Where We Learn (Education), and Where We Receive Care (Healthcare). This approach addresses chronic disease in places where people spend significant amounts of time and reflects the importance of wellness and prevention in all aspects of our lives. Emphasis is placed upon utilizing evidence based-strategies and policy, systems, and environmental approaches to impact health priorities.

Targeted health priorities for 2012-2017 are Diabetes, Access to Healthcare, Cardiovascular Disease, Lung Cancer and Obesity. 

CHIP objectives are collected by the Maricopa County Department of Public Health from agencies participating in the Health Improvement Partnership of Maricopa County (HIPMC). Initiatives reflected in this plan are referenced by organization or as agencies participating in collaborative workgroups and are categorically placed into the Strategy Framework to create the Maricopa County CHIP Workplan. This workplan is a dynamic document updated on a quarterly basis through progress updates collected via phone or email by the Maricopa County Department of Public Health.
 
The CHIP Tracker provides a set of indicators related to health priority areas to show how Maricopa County is measuring up over time to our desired community health outcomes.
