Webinar Slides: State Health Departments and Cross-Jurisdictional Sharing (October 2018)

Resource Summary

Overview:

Cross-jurisdictional sharing (CJS) models typically are established to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of public health programs and outcomes. CJS arrangements may be initiated by local health departments in response to local needs. In addition, state health departments may use CJS to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of state-funded programs or otherwise make system-wide changes.

This webinar provides an overview of ways in which state health departments can support and initiate CJS arrangements at the local level. It provides specific examples of how this has been done in Minnesota and Montana.
