## Summary

**Expands federal research, education, and data collection on uterine fibroids** to develop better, fertility-preserving treatments and to address racial disparities in outcomes. The bill would create NIH-coordinated research programs, a Medicaid/CHIP reporting effort, a public education campaign, and requirements to share evidence-based information with health care providers. - Patients and families: Would push research toward minimally invasive, fertility-friendly therapies, new biomarkers, imaging, and predictive tools. Fibroids are estimated to affect about 26 million women aged 15 to 50, with roughly 15 million experiencing symptoms. - Black individuals: Would study and aim to reduce documented disparities, including earlier onset, greater severity, and higher rates of hospitalization, hysterectomy, and myomectomy among Black patients. - Medicaid and CHIP beneficiaries and policymakers: Would require data collection and reporting on fibroid treatment in Medicaid and the Children’s Health Insurance Program to clarify coverage, service use, and gaps in care.

- Fibroid public and provider education: benefit, medium. If enacted, the HHS Secretary would develop public information about uterine fibroids and work with medical societies and health systems to promote evidence-based care. Efforts must include outreach to minority individuals at elevated risk and cover non-hysterectomy treatment options. Congress may…
- New Medicaid and CHIP fibroid data: benefit, low. If enacted, the HHS Secretary would set up or expand a database to track services for people with uterine fibroids in State Medicaid and CHIP plans.
