Arizona Department of Health Services Launches Public Health Data Portal

PHOENIX – The Arizona Department of Health Services (ADHS) is proud to announce the launch of the Public Health Data Portal, a comprehensive platform designed to put all of the agency’s data in one place.  This advancement will revamp Arizonans’ experience with our website and promote  access to important public health information. 

The launch of this portal comes as ADHS releases its 2024 annual reports, which include an updated  Baby Name Report, Arizona Diabetes Action Plan and Report, and Arizona State Hospital Fiscal Year Annual Report

The portal offers a user-friendly interface and a variety of tools to make it easy for anyone to find and use the data they need. The Public Health Data Portal provides reports, catalogs, maps, dashboards, and search tools in a central location, making it easier for all Arizonans to understand and compare information about health in our state, so they can make informed healthcare decisions.

“The Public Health Data Portal is a major step forward in our efforts to make data more accessible and transparent,” said Wesley Kortuem, ADHS Analytics Section Lead. “We believe that this portal will be a valuable resource for anyone who wants to learn more about public health in Arizona.”

The Public Health Data Portal is available now at https://data.azdhs.gov/. For more information, please visit the ADHS website or contact pi*@***hs.gov.
