A new federal website would give people better information and research on chronic pain.
This bill would require the government to create a new online hub for chronic pain research and data. It would also mandate federal agencies to collect more detailed information on chronic pain, including its causes, costs, and treatments. This aims to help patients, doctors, and researchers better understand and manage chronic pain.
Today, there is no specific requirement for the federal government to systematically collect and share comprehensive data on chronic pain or to maintain a dedicated public website for this information. If this bill passes, the Secretary of Health and Human Services would be required to lead a major effort to research chronic pain, collect detailed data, and make it publicly available through a new website called the Chronic Pain Information Hub.
