The Office on Women's Health (OWH) and the National Women's Health Information Center (NWHIC) is proud to announce the launch of our new and comprehensive National Women's Health Indicators Database (NWHID). This is a FREE online tool, which can be accessed at www.4woman.gov/statedata or through the NWHIC site at www.4woman.gov.
NWHID contains extensive national health data, which compiles valuable health statistics information from the present and backdated to the year 2000. This database will be updated on an annual basis in order to keep up with current trends and health facts, and has been developed as a free tool for your use. This new online tool can benefit health professionals, researchers, members of the press, consumers, and more – anyone looking for current and reliable health statistics.
Through this database you have immediate access to the following breakdown of statistics on a national, regional, state, and county level:
- Demographics
- Mortality
- Access to Care
- Infections and Chronic Disease
- Reproductive Health
- Maternal health
- Mental health
- Prevention
- Violence and Abuse
Access is free, and users can make their own tables and graphs out of any data in the database. Age adjusted data and three year averages are included for many of the health indicators.
