U.S. Failing to Meet Goals for Women's Health: Report


The United States has failed to achieve almost every goal set for women's health, a new report says.

Conducted by the National Women's Law Center and Oregon Health Sciences University (OHSU), the report -- based largely on federal objectives drawn from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services' Healthy People 2010 agenda -- is the fifth in a 10-year look at the status of women's health in this country. In this current analysis, a satisfactory rating was only handed out on three of 26 measures of fine health for women.
