The health
intervention priority index (HIPI) is the result of the conversion of
traditional health data in such a way that HIPI numerical value increases
with the increase of impact of a health intervention. The steps of the
approach are:
- Compile a list of behavioral risks to health that are specific to the
population of interest.
- Compute priorities of the candidate health risks.
- Identify health interventions which demonstrate reduction in
prevalence of targeted behavioral risks.
- Predict amount of reduction of the risk factor of interest.
- Compute priorities of the candidate health interventions.
