Overview
• Overview of CDC • FY 2014 President’s Budget Request • Questions and answers
CDC: Our nation’s health protection agency
• Founded in 1946 • Part of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services • Headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia • 10,000+ full-time employees • 70% of funding helps state and local public health departments, others
CDC activities
• Monitor health • Detect and investigate health problems • Conduct research to enhance prevention • Develop evidence for policies that improve public's health • Promote healthy behaviors and implement prevention strategies • Foster safe and healthful environments • Provide leadership and training
Save lives, protect people, save money through prevention
• Ready 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to respond to and prepare for infectious diseases, environmental hazards, injuries, and other health threats and emergencies • Analyzes health information and investigates health threats to protect people in the U.S. and around the world • Promotes proven methods to prevent disease, improve health, and lower health costs
Putting science into action
CDC turns science into real-world solutions and applies science to protect people and improve health
Strengthen communities
Majority of CDC’s funding goes to state and local public health departments, providing them with resources and support to protect Americans from health threats
CDC protects Americans from threats from this country and around the world CDC operates ~150 labs with ~2,500 scientists and other lab staff Infectious diseases

CDC works to protect us from health, safety, and security threats
• • • Provides real-time response during emergencies Works with state and local health departments to investigate and control outbreaks • Every day, CDC begins at least one investigation of potentially deadly health threat On average, CDC discovers one new microbe or new form of an old one each year
"CDC is the 9-1-1 for the world.”
Ambassador Carson, Assistant Secretary of State for African Affairs
CDC tracks food poisoning cases and monitors for outbreaks across the U.S. to help keep us healthy
• • • • In 2012 CDC Tracked >30 pathogens known to cause foodborne illness Monitored an average of 20 clusters of foodborne illness every week Investigated >200 cases that cross state lines
“There are certain things only a government can do. And one of those things is ensuring that the foods we eat are safe and do not cause us harm.”
President Obama
Information led to recall of 300 products, such as peanut butter, leafy greens, cantaloupes, sprouts, ground beef, raw scraped ground tuna, mangoes, dry dog food, and ricotta cheese
CDC’s disease detectives
Epidemic Intelligence Service (EIS)
• 2-year program of service and on-the-job training for health professionals interested in practice of epidemiology • Every year, 70 –80 people assigned to CDC or state/local health departments • • EIS officers conduct epidemiologic investigations, research, and public health surveillance nationally and internationally 75% of EIS graduates stay in public health at CDC or in state/local health departments

CDC helps save lives and reduce illness around the world
• Protects our borders by stopping epidemics before they spread • Provides stability by preventing diseases that increase poverty and contribute to political unrest in many countries • Promotes economic viability by reducing disruptions in productivity, international trade and markets caused by illnesses and outbreaks • • Partners with ministries of health to provide training for health officials, establish health surveillance systems, and adapt effective public health interventions so that countries can protect the health of their citizens
CDC stops epidemics and saves lives around the world
• Immunizations • Helped cut measles deaths and saved 10.7M lives worldwide from 2000−2011 • Helped reduce global polio cases from 350,000 to <250 • Haiti response • Cholera response activities helped avert >9,000 deaths • Doubled HIV treatment, increased vaccination rates, introduced new vaccines and treatments – all with local, sustainable leadership • Helped create stronger, sustainable public health and health care systems in Haiti • Lymphatic filariasis • Provided mass drug administration with nearly 2B treatments to 600M people
The world is closer than ever to polio eradication

CDC's ability to effectively respond to infectious disease outbreaks is at risk
• CDC currently lacks the cutting-edge analytical capabilities to enable faster and more effective infectious disease prevention and control • CDC labs rely on decade-old methods to detect and diagnose microbes, leading to slower outbreak response • Cholera outbreak in Haiti • PulseNet: Expands the use of molecular technologies to improve food safety • Drug-resistant infections
Advanced Molecular Detection combines cutting-edge approaches Traditional epidemiology + Genetic sequencing + Bioinformatics = Advanced Molecular Detection
Advanced Molecular Detection saves lives, time, and money
• Revolutionizes how CDC investigates and controls outbreaks • Detects disease outbreaks faster, in just
hours
or
days
• Better protects Americans from killer microbes • Detects and stops drug resistant, emerging, and important pathogens faster • Protects U.S. economy • U.S. lives and economic stability depend on CDC detecting and responding quickly to superbugs
Improving public health through AMD technologies
• Creates healthier workforce and stronger economy
Advanced Molecular Detection will allow CDC to detect outbreaks sooner, respond more effectively, saving lives and reducing cost IMPROVED DETECTION Faster, more accurate disease diagnoses and enhanced recognition of antimicrobial resistance IMPROVED SURVEILLANCE Improved surveillance information on the transmission of infections and the extent and spread of outbreaks Better targeting of prevention and treatment measures Faster, more effective control efforts
Prevent the leading causes of death
Prevention Fund successes
• •
Community prevention is key to prevent disease and reduce growth in long-term health care and other costs
• • • Tips From Former Smokers campaign 1st-year successes Projected to result in >100,000 successful quits >200,000 additional calls to 800-QUIT-Now Thousands of lives and millions of health care dollars will be saved Community Transformation Grant recipient have proven successes • South Carolina: 450,000 patients will receive recommended high blood pressure and high cholesterol care • Provided comprehensive workplace health training to employers nationwide, with >2,000 participants • Reached 90% or higher vaccine coverage for measles, mumps, rubella; hepatitis B; poliovirus; and varicella
Building essential public health detection and response
Prevention Fund successes
• • • •
Critical to stop outbreaks and safeguard communities from natural and man-made threats
Fungal meningitis outbreak: tracked down 14,000 exposed patients; assured removal of contaminated product from facilities; saved lives and solved this urgent threat in concert with local public health authorities NJ improved efficiency of reporting influenza results and cut lag time from 2 –3 weeks to 2–3 days Listeria: 146 infected in 28 states and 30 deaths; outbreak solved in 2 weeks, rather than in months Fellows: Supported 320 CDC applied epidemiology and lab trained public health fellows; supported 74% of CDC’s trainees placed in the field
Information for action
Prevention Fund Successes
• • •
Strengthen health systems that gather, analyze, and communicate data to produce timely and accurate information for action
Determined financial burden of care, use of Emergency Department for usual care, insurance coverage rates and difficulties obtaining insurance, and barriers to care NHIS: state-level data will be available for the first-time ever and 80 new ACA-focused questions were added Massachusetts used BRFSS data to analyze short-term effects of legislation on health insurance coverage to target outreach efforts for health insurance enrollment and health care access
FY 2014 key programmatic change
Working Capital Fund
• Incentivize efficiency and collaboration • Greater efficiency and transparency of business support services • Operates on revenues collected for services; multi-year • Distributes business services support funds across programs’ budget lines • • Estimate amounts based on past use of business services CDC will provide updated information based on consumption • FY 2012 levels made comparable to FY 2014
