A bill to direct the Secretary of Health and Human Services to study and report on the state of men’s health in the United States and to establish an Office of Men’s Health within the Department of Health and Human Services.
Key claim: Senate bill S5113 would direct HHS to study and report on the state of men’s health in the United States and establish an Office of Men’s Health within the department.
Abstract
(S5113 · 119th Congress) Latest action (2026-07-23): Read twice and referred to the Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions.
Why this matters
S5113 would create a dedicated HHS office focused on men’s health and commission a status report, potentially shaping future federal programming, data collection, and outreach targeted at male-specific health outcomes. As an introduced bill, it has no immediate effect on coverage or care, but it signals a possible new administrative locus within HHS parallel to existing offices for women’s and minority health.
