Creates federal office to coordinate men's health programs and research nationwide
This bill would create a new Office of Men's Health within the Department of Health and Human Services to coordinate programs addressing men's higher rates of suicide, cancer, and early death. The government would also study men's health nationwide and report findings to Congress within a year. The office would focus on screening programs for prostate cancer, diabetes, and mental health issues.
Today, there's no dedicated federal office coordinating men's health programs, despite men dying at much higher rates than women from most major causes. After this bill, a new Office of Men's Health would coordinate screening programs, maintain research databases, and promote awareness campaigns specifically focused on men's health issues like the 80% of suicides committed by men and the 333,830 men expected to get prostate cancer in 2026.
