Find Data: National Center for Population Health
The National Center for Population Health (NCPH) seeks to increase the value of population-based data and methods to researchers, whether clinical researchers at Dartmouth, researchers at other CTSA institutions, or government policy makers.
The NCPH supplies the infrastructure necessary to create superior measures of population health—and per capita costs—that are available to a much broader group of researchers, while creating new data linkages to support cutting-edge clinical research.
Requests for or inquiries about assistance from the NCPH arise from four general groups: researchers and students at Dartmouth, researchers from CTSA institutions, government and health policy experts, and community boards and health practitioners.
The work of the NCPH draws upon the Dartmouth Atlas of Health Care, which uses Medicare data to provide information and analysis about national, regional, and local markets, as well as hospitals and their affiliated physicians. This research has helped policymakers, the media, health care analysts and others improve their understanding of our health care system; it forms the foundation for many of the ongoing efforts to improve health and health systems across America.
