Referred to the House Committee on Energy and Commerce.
This bill directs the Secretary of Health and Human Services to require public colleges and universities that receive federal grants under the Medical Student Education program to include menopause training in their medical school curricula. The requirement would apply to all public institutions receiving these grants and is intended to ensure that physicians across different medical specialties are better prepared to treat and manage menopause-related health issues in their patients. The bill does not specify new funding amounts or implementation timelines, instead making the menopause training curriculum requirement a condition of existing grant funding. This change would primarily affect medical schools and their students by expanding educational requirements, ultimately benefiting the general public through improved physician knowledge about menopause care.
