Bill overview
This bill, the Evidence-Informed Health Promotion Act, aims to improve health outcomes for older adults by strengthening the Older Americans Act. It requires the Assistant Secretary for Aging to provide states, area agencies on aging, and service providers with information and technical assistance on evidence-informed practices. Specifically, the bill updates the Act to explicitly include ‘evidence-informed practices that are likely to improve health outcomes’ in various sections related to disease prevention, falls prevention, and chronic disease management. This will help ensure that programs and services are based on the best available research and data.
