How does the USPSTF address disparities in preventive services?
Recognizing the role of health disparities in access to and outcomes of preventive services, the USPSTF considers the impact of its recommendations on diverse populations. The task force aims to identify gaps in evidence related to specific demographic groups and encourages research that addresses these disparities. By doing so, the USPSTF strives to improve health equity and ensure that preventive services are beneficial to all segments of the population.
