HHS Launches Coordinated Effort to Strengthen Breast Cancer Screening and Early Detection

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), through its Office on Women's Health (OWH), has announced new coordinated initiatives with the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) and DenseBreast-info.org (DBI). These efforts aim to enhance breast cancer screening, broaden education on breast density, and improve the timeliness of diagnostic follow-up, with a particular focus on midlife women. The initiative supports President Trump and First Lady Melania Trump's Executive Order Advancing Women's Health.
