BUILD Mid-Point Survey

Project Lead: Jewlya Lynn Spark Policy Institute

The midyear survey is part of the developmental evaluation process, focused on surfacing insights about what it takes to do the work of BUILD effectively on the ground. The learning from the survey will be shared back with all participants and will be used to strengthen the support services that are part of the BUILD approach. Participation will be requested from the three core organizational partners - the non-profit lead, public health, and the health systems partner - to increase the perspectives and value of the information generated. Participation from sites is required and answers will be anonymous.

Detailed analysis of survey data will inform: • the development of

Learning Sessions

• current operations of BUILD

• the development of

future iterations of BUILD

No more than 25 minutes for the non-profit lead. No more than 10 minutes for the public health and health systems partners   One-time, online survey open in December 2015.

Hospital Engagement Project

Project Lead: Dara Mendez Mendez Group

The Hospital Engagement Project is designed to achieve two distinct goals: • Explore hospital and health system motivation for partnering in the BUILD Health

Challenge • Examine the definitions and approaches to addressing the social determinants of

health, population health, and health equity most commonly used by hospitals and health systems

Data from the mid-year survey will inform this project. Additional participation will be requested from the hospital or health system partner organization. Additional references for interviews within the health system may be requested. Participation is voluntary but strongly encouraged.

Key insights on health system engagement to be published in a peer-reviewed journal and other relevant channels.

A one-hour interview with the primary hospital/health system partner on the BUILD project team. A one-hour interview with an additional contact at the hospital/health system partner (preferably the hospital/health system CEO).

BUILD Case Studies

The purpose of the BUILD case studies is to document how you and your partners worked together over the course of the funding period. These case studies will document the “how” of BUILD; this could include topics such as how your collaboration:

• collectively addressed the social determinants of health • collaborated to address a particular upstream issue

(Continued on the next page)

Case studies will be profiled on buildhealthchallenge.org, as well as featured in a series of papers aimed at documenting best practices in multi-sector collaboration.

Interviews will be conducted with each of the three core partners every other month. Interviews will take one hour.
