Excerpt

Introduction The Office of Disease Prevention and Health Promotion's (ODPHP) Healthy People 2030 vision is for "a society in which all people can achieve their full potential for health and well-being across the lifespan." To achieve this, 3 areas, "well-being, healthy life expectancy, and summary mortality and health," were identified to measure the health of the population (ODPHP. Healthy People 2030).
