2 Background Social network analysis seeks to understand individual actions in the context of structured relationships (or the structures directly). 1,2 Considerable work on disease epidemics and transmission networks 3,4 Examples: HIV/AIDS, 5 STDs (Chlamydia, Gonorrhea, Syphilis), 6 SARS, 7 H1N1, 8 Smoking, 9 and Obesity 10 Shift focus towards public health surveillance system Detection, monitoring, and reporting of possible public health outbreaks and emergencies, including bioterrorism [1] Wasserman S, Faust, K.

3 Public Health Epidemiologists Introduced in 2003 by North Carolina Division of Public Health (DPH) CDC PHEP-Funded Workforce Program Provide LHDs and NC DPH with a dedicated point of contact within 11 major hospitals Primary tasks and responsibilities 46% time spent surveillance, detection, and monitoring 21% time spent assisting LHDs Educating and communicating with clinicians, hospitals, and the public health system
4 Study Objectives Examine the relationship and patterns of interaction among hospital-based public health epidemiologists (PHEs) and their partners related to public health surveillance activities To identify key actors and partnerships in the public health epidemiologist (PHE) network to understand how these relationships impact current and potential flows of information and communication To determine the extent to which the program fulfills its intended liaison role between LHDs and local hospitals
5 Methodology Defining the Network 11,12 Actors Public health departments/districts, hospitals, and public health epidemiologists Edges Relationship and patterns of reported interaction (e.g. info requests, lab results, disease outbreak) among PHEs and their partners related to CD surveillance activities Collecting the Data Survey Roster checklist, open-ended - LHDs Qualitative interviews with PHE and hospital staff Network analysis was conducted in R using statnet package. 13 [11] Wasserman S, Faust, K.

15 Conclusions Brokerage analysis provides one approach to help assess and validate a PHEP-funded program Limitations Does not explore factors/attributes influencing roles Limited only to public health and program-related activities Snapshot w/in past year (May-Sept 2010) PHEs improves information and communication in routine/non-routine public health events Greatly enhanced completeness (58.9%) and timeliness (66.1%) of H1N1 reporting in the community Greatly enhanced (62.7%) communication between hospitals and local health departments, i.e. CD reporting/investigation
16 Implications and Directions Informing stakeholder decision-making Reports and follow-up discussions w/in 60 days Evaluating the hospital catchment area State-wide system coverage Assessing the time-lag reduction Timeliness of info requests* PHE Hospitals (39.8%) Non-PHE (15.7%) Building a robust model Identifying program factors Incorporation of actor attributes * Response time of immediately - when LHDs asked about time to receive requested information
