The State of Health in Tennessee

As outlined in statute, the State Health Plan must “review the health status of Tennesseans” while “assessing health resources and outcomes.” Guided by subject matter expert meetings and the Department’s Vision, “Healthy People, Healthy Communities, Healthy Tennessee,” the State of Health report assesses the health status of Tennesseans across the four areas of the State Health Plan Framework: A Healthy Start, A Healthy Life, a Healthy Environment, and a Healthy System of Care. In total, the report considers over 100 metrics to assess the State of Health in Tennessee. The data below is used to craft informed and actionable recommendations housed within the State Health Plan.
