CDC Strategic Directions

Improve health security at home and around the world

Better prevent

the leading causes of illness, injury, disability, and death

Strengthen public health/health care collaboration

Key Features of Affordable Care Act

“Simply put, in the absence of a radical shift towards prevention and public health, we will not be successful in containing medical costs or improving the health of the American people.” - President Obama

“…health strategies, interventions, and policies applied at the population level can advance current approaches to our nation’s most pressing health concerns more efficiently and effectively than can isolated, intensive individual-level actions within the clinical care sector.”
