Public health is a government responsibility, and CSC helps government live up to that responsibility. At the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), CSC develops and maintains public health software. We developed the CDC National Electronic Disease Surveillance System (NEDSS). We build biosurveillance use cases, manage data operations and support desktop users.

Services and Offerings

Biodefense and Biosurveillance
CSC is exceptionally qualified to support government efforts to achieve real-time biosurveillance situational awareness. We have extensive experience with most of the government organizations that currently conduct biosurveillance. In some cases, we’ve built the systems they use.

Pandemic Preparedness
CSC is supporting CDC and NIH in developing comprehensive, detailed plans to manage the impact of pandemic flu on their operations. CSC also is supporting EPA in developing communications to protect and sustain the nation’s water infrastructure during a pandemic. Learn more about pandemic preparedness plans.

Public Health Surveillance
CSC led the development of a National Electronic Disease Surveillance System (NEDSS)-compatible Base System (NBS), to be offered to state health departments and eventually to other organizations. The NBS enables data entry via the Web, electronic interchange of laboratory data, and an integrated data repository for multiple diseases. Learn more about public health surveillance.

Public Health Education & Training
CSC helped open the Public Health Image Library (PHIL) by creating a Web gateway and improving the user experience.

CSC is part of the team that created the Viral Hepatitis Serology Training that won first place for “Computer-based Communications” at the 2006 Communicators Roundtable Awards Ceremony sponsored by CDC/ATSDR.
