Description:Health, United States, 1986 is the 11th annual report on the health status of the Nation submitted by the Secretary of Health and Human Services to the President and Congress of the United States in compliance with Section 308(a)(2) of the Public Health Service Act. This volume also contains the third triennial Prevention Profile, submitted by the Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services to the President and the Congress of the United States in compliance with Section 404 of Title IV of the Health Services and Centers Amendments of 1978 (Public Law 95-626). These reports were compiled by the National Center for Health Statistics, Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health. The National Committee on Vital and Health Statistics served in a review capacity.
The 1986 Prevention Profile serves as an integral part of the Department’s overall disease prevention and health promotion initiative by providing data to chart progress toward the five broad goals published in Healthy People: The Surgeon General’s Report on Health Promotion and Disease Prevention. It also delineates all of the 1990 objectives contained in Promoting Health/Preventing Disease: Objectives for the Nation and presents data, where available, to measure and evaluate progress since the objectives were established.
