Description For a variety of its own reasons not applicable to the Committee, the agency may implement all/most of the recommendations, but few times recommendations are not implemented. The 24 research priorities have been identified and were recently sent to the Secretary. One of the recommendations has been initiated (support the Institute of Medicine's study on preterm birth) through the joint efforts of several HHS agencies, including HRSA. Meanwhile the agency continues to address previous recommendations of the Committee that were not adressed in previous years. Pilot projects addressing systems delivery components contributing to variations in low birth weight continue to be funded.
