<p class="MsoNormal"><strong>Module summary</strong></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This module focuses on measuring individual and population health status. We’ll discuss the differences between individual and population health, as well as approaches to measuring population health. Finally the module will focus on commonly used population health indicators such as mortality, incidence and prevalence and DALYs.</p>
