Describe succinctly how the organizational models at either the state or local level differ in terms of their structure and operation.

A vital element of the health infrastructure that is often overlooked is the state and local Health Department. I would like for you to explore the various organizational models for public health. These models vary considerably within the country. The health departments in New York State, for example, are free standing, reporting directly to the governor, whereas the health departments in North Carolina and Maryland are part of a “superagency.” Some local health departments are an extension of the state health department, while others are autonomous from it, though influenced by the state. Still others are semiautonomous. Any of these departments might be responsible to the city or county government or a combination of them. There are benefits and disadvantages to each of these state and local models.

Prepare for this assignment by reviewing the various organizational models, at the state and local levels.

Describe succinctly how the organizational models at either the state or local level differ in terms of their structure and operation.
