state health agencies are doing to integrate tobacco control efforts into their

these programs intersect and compiles case studies that illustrate the factors that
predispose, enable and reinforce integration.

For the fifth year in a row, the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) has produced the National Healthcare Quality Report (NHQR) and the National Healthcare Disparities Report (NHDR). These reports measure trends in effectiveness of care, patient safety, timeliness of care, patient centeredness, and efficiency of care. The reports present, in chart form, the latest available findings on quality of and access to health care.
