Proposed Project

    CDC Oral Health Management Information System--New--Division of 
Oral Health (DOH), National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and 
Public Health Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for Disease Control and 
Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    The CDC seeks to improve the oral health of the nation by targeting 
efforts to improve the infrastructure of state and territorial oral 
health departments, strengthen and enhance program capacity related to 
monitoring the population's oral health status and behaviors, develop 
effective programs to improve the oral health of children and adults, 
evaluate program accomplishments, and inform key stakeholders, 
including policy makers, of program results. Through a cooperative 
agreement program (Program Announcement 03022), CDC provides 
approximately $3 million per year over 5 years to 12 states and one 
territory to strengthen the state's core oral health infrastructure and 
capacity and reduce health disparities among high-risk groups. The CDC 
is authorized to do this under sections 301 and 317(k) of the Public 
Health Service Act [42 U.S.C. 241 and 247b(k)].
    NCCDPHP is currently pursuing a key initiative to improve the 
efficiency and effectiveness of CDC project officers who oversee the 
State and territorial oral health programs by developing an information 
system to support program management, consulting and evaluation. 
Information systems provide a central repository of information, such 
as the plans of the State or territorial oral health programs (their 
goals, objectives, performance milestones and indicators), as well as 
state and territorial oral health performance activities including 
programmatic and financial information.
