Bill overview
This bill reauthorizes the WISEWOMAN program, which provides preventive health services to women, particularly those with low incomes. It expands the program’s ability to offer screenings for blood pressure and cholesterol, along with health education and referrals for medical treatment. The bill also allows grant recipients to designate other providers to offer these services, such as those already involved in breast and cervical cancer screenings. Finally, it provides $250 million in funding for the program over five years.
