What is the role of other Health and Human Services (HHS) agencies in EGAPP?
Other HHS agencies have provided representation on the EGAPP Steering Committee throughout the development and implementation of the initiative. Founding Steering Committee members included representatives from CDC, the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ), the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, the Food and Drug Administration, the Health Resources and Service Administration, and the National Human Genome Research Institute (National Institutes of Health). AHRQ Evidence-based Practice Centers are also being commissioned by CDC to conduct some evidence reviews.
