It was heartening to learn that we would have a more streamlined reporting system. It was also great to hear of the reduction in reporting requirements, particularly from community organizations.

However, I have some questions that were not resolved by the listening session. Specifically, I wonder what is to be done to address the reporting issues regarding the methods used to reduce health disparities? How will this be counted? Defined? and if it already has begun, where is there information and where can one volunteer to assist in this endeavor?

I look forward to your response.
