CDC Chronic Disease Indicator Tool Memo

Introduction
As a population health coordinator for a community hospital, you are asked to put a treatment versus prevention discussion together for a group of advanced practice providers who work in family practices. You are asked to talk about the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) chronic disease indicator tool so that the providers understand the tool and the data stored on the site.

Based on their observations, in this scenario, and upon a careful review of the available literature, the student is to consider him or herself to be the population health coordinator for a community hospital.
Prepare a memo that explains key features of the chronic disease indicator tool.
You will need to explain the type of data the indicators could provide to the provider and their particular communities.
You should emphasize why stakeholder participation is important in population health management.
The response should explicitly address all required components of this discussion assignment. The document should reflect higher-level cognitive processing (analysis, synthesis, and evaluation).
Support the memo with at least 3 references of credible or peer-reviewed sources. The in-text citations and the list of references should be consistent with the APA writing style (7th ed.). To earn the maximum number of points for the initial posting, the overall quality of the writing should be consistent with that expected of a college student and industry professional.
