This legislation mandates that the Secretary of Health and Human Services, in collaboration with the Secretaries of Defense and Veterans Affairs, undertake a comprehensive interagency review. The primary goal of this review is to assess the current status of research concerning lung cancer in women and underserved populations , as well as to identify avenues for accelerating such research. The review will also focus on enhancing access to lung cancer preventive services and developing strategic public awareness and education campaigns. It specifically seeks to uncover opportunities for collaborative and innovative research, including evaluating environmental and genomic factors related to lung cancer in women and advancing imaging technologies for improved risk assessment and diagnosis. Furthermore, the bill directs the identification of opportunities for a national lung cancer screening strategy to expand access, particularly for women and underserved groups. It also calls for the development of a national public education campaign emphasizing early detection and awareness of lung cancer in these specific populations, with a report to Congress due within two years.
