The Health and Human Services Directory (HHS) of Data Resources is a compilation of information about virtually all major data collection systems sponsored by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. The Directory was produced for policymakers, administrators, researchers, and the public as a reference document on data resources within HHS.
Originator(s): Department of Health and Human Services
Resource added in:
22/11/2000
Objective:
The Directory of health and human services data resources was designed to include data resources with current utility or the potential for use by a wide variety of audiences. Databases from continuing departmental data projects or program administrative and evaluation activities that met the criterion of broad utility were included in the directory. Such data projects and systems included recurring surveys and disease registries either maintained or sponsored by HHS. Databases from one-time studies or data collections were also included when the data may have broad interest. The criterion of broad utility for inclusion generally excluded from this directory projects such as funded research at a university where the data were applicable only to a specific and narrow issue in the funded study and/or the data are not readily accessible to the public for secondary data analysis.
