Matt, if you or whoever replies to you would cc me (or possibly the
whole list if anyone else is interested), I'd greatly appreciate it.
We're working on assessing the health literacy of the Medicaid
population in a specific county in Arkansas, and I'd love to see some
examples of this kind of survey or other tools. Thanks!

Subject: [HealthLiteracy 2053] Health Literacy Assessment Survey


Hello All-
  I am health literacy intern this summer at a county health department
in Missouri.  My first goal is to assess the current health literacy
rate of the county so we can identify strengths and weaknesses, then
prepare an implementation plan tailored to best fit the community.  In
order to assess current health literacy, I proposed that a survey of
some sort would probably be necessary in order to formulate our initial
research.  I have been able to thus far find any examples of such a
survey/questionnaire, and was wondering if anyone had used/created one
or knew from where I could find one.  I very much appreciate any help
with this as I prepare to begin the first steps in our new health
literacy program.  Thank you.
