ALACHUA COUNTY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT 2010
Technical Appendix
The Technical Appendix for the Alachua County Health Needs Assessment presents detailed descriptions of the
activities completed during the assessment including a comprehensive listing of all data tables and research
protocol used in the development of this report.
Notes
Note on Crude Versus Age-Adjusted Mortality Rates
The needs assessment and the technical appendix present both the crude and age-adjusted death rates (AADR).
Crude rates are merely the actual number of deaths for a given cause for a desired population divided by total
number in the desired population and then multiplied by 100,000 to get the rate per 100,000 population, while
AADR represent crude rates adjusted to standardize the population distribution effects on the rate.
Although useful for certain purposes, the crude death rate as a comparative measure has a major shortcoming:
it is a function of the age distribution of the population at risk. For example, the population at risk in one county
may be primarily elderly persons ages 65 and older while the population at risk in another county may be
primarily of persons ages 40 to 50. Crude rates are recommended when a summary measure is needed and it is
not necessary or desirable to adjust for other factors.
The frequency with which health events occur is almost always related to age. In fact, the relationship of age to
risk often dwarfs other important risk factors. For example, acute respiratory infections are more common in
children of school age because of their immunologic susceptibility and exposure to other children in schools.
Chronic conditions, such as arthritis and atherosclerosis, occur more frequently in older adults because of a
variety of physiologic consequences of aging. Mortality rates tend to increase after the age of 40.
Because the occurrence of many health conditions is related to age, the most common adjustment for public
health data is age adjustment. The age-adjustment process removes differences in the age composition of two
or more populations to allow comparisons between these populations independent of their age structure.
The age-adjusted death rate is a summary measure that eliminates the effect of the underlying age distribution
of the population. The result is a figure that represents the theoretical risk of mortality for a population, if the
population had an age distribution identical to that of a standard population. For example, a county’s age-
adjusted death rate is the weighted average of the age-specific death rates observed in that county, with the
weights derived from the age distribution in an external population standard, such as the U.S. population.
Age-adjustment then allows for the comparison of two distinct populations (for example, Alachua County versus
Florida) which most likely have differing age distributions. The age effects are in essence removed from the
rates and the age-adjusted death rate then no longer reflects the actual death rate but is an indicator rate that
can be used for relative comparisons.
In the past, the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) age-adjusted rates using the US 1940 standard
population. Other agencies used the US 1970 Standard. Beginning with 1999 data, federal agencies began age-
adjusting to the US 2000 Standard Million Population.

A margin of error (MOE) is the difference between an estimate and its upper or lower confidence bounds.
Confidence bounds can be created by adding a margin of error to the estimate (for an upper bound) and
subtracting the margin of error from the estimate (for a lower bound). All published margins of error for the Small
Area Health Insurance Estimates program are based on a 90 percent confidence level.

The number in a demographic group is the number of people in the poverty universe in that age, sex, and
race/Hispanic origin group.

Medical Group, and CHOICES Health Services to conduct this study. We are attempting to gain information from
people who live in Alachua County about their health and health care needs- something you or your family
needs to stay healthy or to stop from being sick or hurt. We have invited people here, like yourself, from
throughout the county to share thoughts and experiences.
You were selected to participate in this session because you all have certain things in common that are of
particular interest to us. We are extremely interested in hearing from you because it will help us to understand
what you think are factors influencing an individual’s health and what our county’s most important health needs
are. You represent the community members. Remember, there is no right or wrong answers. Each of you has
different points of view to offer and we are would like to hear each one of them. So, please feel free to share
your points of view, even if they differ from what others say.
Before we begin, let me remind you of some ground rules.
Please speak up and only one person should talk at a time. Please wait your turn.
I want to assure you that what you say in this group will remain confidential. Though, we will be on a first name
basis while we are here, your names will not be attached to any of your comments when we are generating our
report findings. I also want to ask you to respect the confidentiality of others in this group as well. What is
shared in here must remain in here.
We are making an audio recording of this session because we do not want to miss any of your comments. If
several people are talking at the same time, we will not be able to understand the recording and will lose
valuable information.
Keep in mind we are interested in both negative and positive comments; comments about programs that are
already being conducted and ones that you would like to see established in the county. Both negative and
positive, those related to what is and what should be, will be helpful to us. We may differ in our opinions and
may not agree on everything but please be respectful of others’ opinions.
Our session will last about an hour and a half. We will not be taking any formal breaks during the session, but if
you need to go to the restroom or would like to grab some additional snacks, please feel free to do so. If you
have a cell phone, please turn them off or put them on vibrate. If you must answer the phone, please do so
outside and return as quickly as you can.
Are there any questions about what we’re doing today?
(Participants may ask about incentive payments. Inform them that incentives will be distributed at the
conclusion of the discussion group.)

Review Consent and demographic form.
If there are no additional questions, we’ll begin. You will notice that we have placed name stickers on the table
in front of you. If each of you can write your name and stick them on your right shoulder, it will help us
remember each other’s names. Let’s find out some more about each other by going around the room one at a
time. Please tell us your first name and how long you have lived in Alachua County? (Go around the room)
Now that we have heard from each of you, I would like to ask some questions for anyone to answer. Please, I
ask you to remember to talk one at a time because each one of you have important things to say and we want to
make sure that we hear what you have to say. There are not right or wrong answers; we only want to hear your
comments.

hurt), where would you suggest I go?

you or your family? (List on flip chart)

something you or your family needs to purchase to stay healthy or to stop from being sick or hurt. Examples
might be health insurance, medicines, transportation to a doctor’s visit) we have just come up with? If each of

need?

issues you would like to discuss?

event in January of 2010. All community members will be invited to prioritize the most pressing issues facing the
community and identify possible initiatives and community activities that could address those issues. We will be
