Maine Rural Health Research Center - Institute for Health Policy, Edmund S. Muskie School of Public Service
Manitoba Centre for Health Policy - The Manitoba Centre for Health Policy(MCHP) is a research unit within the Department of Community Health Sciences, Faculty of Medicine, University of Manitoba (Canada) MCHP researchers benefit from collaboration with peers across Canada, the United States and Europe. MCHP does research on the health of Manitobans. We examine patterns of illness in the population, and study how people use health care services. Our primary focus is on the question "What makes people healthy?" Many factors affect one''s health, such as income, education, employment and social circumstances. At MCHP, we are sorting out the contribution of each of these factors. Our research helps health care decision-makers address some of today''s difficult questions: How can we make the best use of our health care resources? Who are the heavy users of health care services? What services will Manitobans need in the future? What factors - beyond medical care - determine people''s health? Have we overspent on health care by not getting at the root causes of poor health?
