EXECUTIVE RECOMMENDATION: Approved by Lacey Harper 1/9/25
PURPOSE: Snohomish County, acting through its Health Department, needs access to the Washington State Department of Health (DOH) Comprehensive Hospital Abstract Reporting System (CHARS) and vital records datasets.
BACKGROUND: The County’s Health Department will use the CHARS and vital records datasets for on-going assessment activities, including tracking trends for public health indicators, preparing reports on specific public health issues, and responding to requests for data from the public and other public agencies. The CHARS data will be used to build a chronic disease and injury prevention surveillance system and would be used to estimate trends in chronic disease, injury/violence, and hospital burden and will be part of an on-going chronic disease and injury prevention surveillance system. The vital records data will include birth, fetal death, and infant death data that will be used for general public health and prevention efforts through analysis and review of trends over time in births, maternal risk factors, and infant deaths in Snohomish County.
