Biennial Health Status Indicator Report
Common Health for the Commonwealth reflects data and trends, progress in our public health goals, and focused perspectives from experts in each field. The report measures rates of poverty,
access to care, lack of education, air pollution, tobacco use, obesity, violence, suicide, alcohol use, infectious blood-borne disease; all preventable factors that
affect the health status of Massachusetts residents. These guide our dialogue with policy makers, academicians, researchers, clinicians, providers and others in
creating programs to support improving individual and community health. The Massachusetts Health Council is committed to continued ongoing trends
measurement to track those successful programmatic or public policy changes that do improve our "common health."
