Health Impact Assessments

An HIA is a combination of procedures, methods and tools that systematically and prospectively judges the potential, and sometimes unintended, effects of a policy, plan, program, or project (commonly outside of the health sector) on the health of a population, and the distribution of those effects within the population. HIA identifies appropriate actions to manage those effects.
What HIA IS
Adapted from the WHO Gothenberg Consensus Paper, 1999
![Page 9: Health Impact Assessment: Bringing Public Health Back to the Decision Table](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022020217/5555ab4dd8b42afe5d8b4776/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Process and Product
Process• Principles of democracy,
equity, sustainability, ethical use of data, comprehensive approach to health
• Fosters collaboration between planning, health, and policy making fields and community engagement
• Steps: screening, scoping, assessment, recommendations, report, evaluation
Product• A report (in multiple
formats for different audiences) that portrays the process, findings, and recommendations of the HIA
• Intended to be presented to decision makers prior to the decision being made
• Used as a model to other HIA practitioners and to supplement other tools/policies

Screening
•Whether or not to conduct a HIA on the proposal.
•Will a HIA add to the decision-making process?
•Are there potential health impacts?
Scoping
•How are we going to conduct the HIA? Setting an action plan.
•Identifying potential impacts to assess.
•Setting boundaries- temporal, geographic, population, etc.
Health Impact Assessments Steps
![Page 13: Health Impact Assessment: Bringing Public Health Back to the Decision Table](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022020217/5555ab4dd8b42afe5d8b4776/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Assessment
•Collecting data and conducting a community profile.
•Estimating the potential impacts based on quantitative and qualitative data and processes.
•Combination of expert and community involvement.
Recom
mendations
•Develop suggestions to maximize the positive and minimize the negative health impacts.
•Prioritize recommendations and make them actionable and as specific as possible.
•Community involvement key for buy in and support of recommendations by decision makers.
Health Impact Assessments Steps
![Page 14: Health Impact Assessment: Bringing Public Health Back to the Decision Table](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022020217/5555ab4dd8b42afe5d8b4776/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Reporting
•Provide public and decision makers with the process, findings, and recommendations of the HIA.
•Remember different report types for different audiences.
Evaluation
•How could the process be improved?
•What was the impact on the decision?
•What were the health outcomes of the decision made? Predictions accurate?

Literature Review Conducted by Western Kentucky University
•Looked at obesity at national level•Kentucky’s obesity levels particularly for children•Need for an integrated approach•Workplace’s potential role – where parents are•Parent’s impact on children’s health (obesity) •The need to look at the environment and policy
![Page 31: Health Impact Assessment: Bringing Public Health Back to the Decision Table](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022020217/5555ab4dd8b42afe5d8b4776/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Parents are not receiving enough information, support, and guidance on childhood obesity.
A worksite wellness program would address teaching employees (parents) about diet and physical activity
The education and support that employees (parents) receive in the workplace can positively influence the family.
Programs would need to include children and families, focus on child behavior and environment
Parents can be advocates for their children’s environment whether at home, daycare or school.

Childhood Obesity Impact Findings

IBM’s Children Health Rebate Program
About 45 % of IBM’s employees have children covered on the health plan.
In 2008 launched this program to help parents assist their children in maintaining a healthy weight.
The 12-week web-based program includes a $150 cash rebate that rewards participation.
2/3 of employees who participated reported that their children were exercising
59% of children and 64% of adults improved body weight or maintained a healthy weight.
Parents and children improved in healthy eating and physical activity behaviors and a reduction in screen time

Jobs: Impact Findings
Lack of employment or underemployment affects ability to purchase healthy foods, maintain or improve health, and receive medical care
Reducing health care costs, improving productivity through wellness programs could lead to an increase in jobs in the state
A tax credit could lead to an increase in wellness jobs

Social Cohesion/Well-being: Impact Findings
Ky. Ranked 49 in Gallop Well –being Index Study
State’s Work Environment Index score fell from 48.3 in 2009 to 46.8 in 2010 leading to a drop in state ranking from 32 to 36 in this index
Specific populations such as urban areas and rural, particularly Appalachian reported less well-being in some factors.
Wellness programs have been shown to affect morale and improve the work environmentCabinet for Health and Family Services
![Page 35: Health Impact Assessment: Bringing Public Health Back to the Decision Table](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022020217/5555ab4dd8b42afe5d8b4776/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Overall: Impact Findings
Number of companies that have wellness programs has increased from 34% in 2007 to 63% in 2010.
However most not comprehensive 94% of companies have less than 50
employeesFirms with less than 100 employees
accounted for 35 percent of total employment in Kentucky.
A worksite wellness tax credit would increase the number of worksite wellness programs particularly in smaller companies Cabinet for Health and Family Services

Worksite Wellness Programs: Impact Findings
Kentucky lacks much of the needed specific information on worksite wellness programsHow many work in the wellness service field?Turnover rates in companies in the state with
wellness programs ? How does the morale differ in companies that have
wellness programs? How does the productivity differ?Health outcomes associated with workplace
support
A state-wide detailed assessment of current worksite wellness program practices is needed.

Preliminary Recommendations
Enact the tax credit billConduct an in depth assessment of worksite
wellness programs in the stateRecognize the worksite venue as a means to
improve health of Kentucky residents – not just employees
Incorporate tax credit criteria to include programs to assist families improve health
Kentucky economy can be improved through worksite wellness programs
