Therefore, the American College of Medical Informatics selected \u201cRebuilding the Nation's Public Health Informatics Infrastructure\u201d as the theme for its annual symposium. Experts in biomedical informatics and public health discussed strategies to strengthen the US public health information infrastructure through policy, education, research, and development. This article summarizes policy recommendations for the biomedical informatics community postpandemic. First, the nation must perceive the health data infrastructure to be a matter of national security. The nation must further invest significantly more in its health data infrastructure. Investments should include the education and training of the public health workforce as informaticians in this domain are currently limited. Finally, investments should strengthen and expand health data utilities that increasingly play a critical role in exchanging information across public health and healthcare organizations.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/jamia\/ocad033","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,3,14]],"date-time":"2023-03-14T16:13:28Z","timestamp":1678810408000},"page":"1000-1005","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":17,"title":["Enhancing
