the distribution of
health interventions.

Population Health Mapper
The Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC)
created a resource guide of
the most frequently
recommended health
outcomes and determinants,
the Community Health
Assessment for Population
Health Improvement. The
Population Health Mapper
includes the majority of the
Health Outcome and Health
Determinant Metrics identified
in the report at the county
level.

Social Determinants of Health Mapper
Place matters to personal and
population health. The social
determinants of health have
begun to shape public health
and policy interventions.
Neighborhood socioeconomic
and demographic
characteristics play significant
roles in influencing health
outcomes.

Primary Care Workforce Mapper
The Primary Care Health
Workforce Mapper allows
users to visualize the
geographic distribution of
physicians and non-physician
clinicians at a state or county
level. This tool is driven by the
Centers for Medicare and
Medicaid Services' National
Plan and Provider
Enumeration System
(NPPES).
