To direct the Comptroller General of the United States to evaluate the Federal Government's collection and sharing of public health data to respond to public health emergencies.

Bill 118 hr 3742, also known as the Public Health Data Improvement Act, aims to address the collection and sharing of public health data by the Federal Government during public health emergencies. The bill directs the Comptroller General of the United States to conduct an evaluation of the current practices and procedures in place for collecting and sharing public health data.

The evaluation will focus on how effectively the Federal Government is able to gather and disseminate crucial public health information during times of crisis. This includes assessing the timeliness, accuracy, and accessibility of the data being collected, as well as the mechanisms in place for sharing this information with relevant stakeholders.

The goal of this evaluation is to identify any gaps or inefficiencies in the current system and make recommendations for improvements. By ensuring that the Federal Government has the necessary tools and processes in place to effectively respond to public health emergencies, the Public Health Data Improvement Act aims to better protect the health and safety of the American people.
