LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST
AB 2424, as amended, Gomez. Community-based Health Improvement and
Innovation Fund.
Existing law establishes the State Department of Public Health,
within the California Health and Human Services Agency, vested with
certain duties, powers, functions, jurisdiction, and responsibilities
over specified public health programs.
This bill, among other things, would create the Community-based
Health Improvement and Innovation Fund in the State Treasury, and the
moneys in the fund would be available, upon appropriation by the
Legislature, for certain purposes, including, but not limited to,
reducing health inequity and disparities in the rates and outcomes of
priority chronic health conditions, as defined, preventing the onset
of priority chronic health conditions using community-based
strategies in communities statewide and with particular focus on
health equity priority populations, as defined, and strengthening
local, regional, and state level collaborations between public health
jurisdictions and health care providers, and across government
agencies and community partners to create healthier communities,
using a health-in-all-policies approach. The department would be
required to use a specified percentage of moneys from the fund for
certain public health and administrative activities and would be
required to award a specified percentage of moneys from the fund to
local health jurisdictions and as competitive grants to eligible
applicants to be used to improve health and health equity, as
provided.
This bill would create the 13-member Community-based Health
Improvement and Innovation Fund Advisory Committee to, among other
things, advise the department with respect to policy development,
integration, and evaluation of community-based chronic disease and
injury prevention activities funded under these provisions, and for
development of a master plan of recommendations and proposed
strategies for the future implementation of those activities. The
bill would require the advisory committee, based on the results of
programs supported by these provisions, to produce a comprehensive
set of recommendations and proposed strategies for advancing chronic
disease and injury prevention throughout the state, to include
implementation strategies in the recommendations for each priority
chronic health condition throughout the state and identification of
areas where innovative solutions are especially needed, and to submit
the recommendations and proposed strategies to the Legislature
triennially.
Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: yes.
State-mandated local program: no.
THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. Part 8 (commencing with Section 106050) is added to
Division 103 of the Health and Safety Code, to read:
PART 8. Community-based Health Improvement and Innovation Fund
106050. The Legislature finds and declares all of the following:
(a) Over the past century, chronic diseases have emerged as a
predominant challenge to public health. Chronic disease and injury
account for eight of every 10 deaths and affects
affect the quality of life of 14 million Californians.
(b) Obesity and diabetes in particular have grown rapidly, posing
a grave threat to health. Today over one-half of California adults
are estimated to have either diabetes or prediabetes. Thirteen
million adults in California, 46 percent of the adult population, are
estimated to have prediabetes or undiagnosed diabetes, while another
2.5 million adults, 9 percent of the adult population, have already
been diagnosed with diabetes.
(c) The health inequities in this state are stark:
(1) Ethnic minorities and individuals who have low incomes have
higher rates of diabetes. Nearly one-in-five
1 in 5 African Americans and Latinos in California have
diabetes, more than double the rate of Whites.
(2) Nearly 12 years of life separate the life expectancy at the
top and at the bottom of neighborhood clusters in California, from a
life expectancy of 87 years in parts of northwest Santa Clara County
to 75.3 years in the City of Twentynine Palms and the City of Barstow
in the County of San Bernardino.
(3) Economically disadvantaged children are far less likely to
complete the fitness requirements of the physical fitness test
offered to students in grade school.
(4) Adolescents covered by Medi-Cal reported significantly higher
rates of drinking sugar-sweetened beverages and less daily
consumption of vegetables than the general California adolescent
population and were significantly more likely to be obese.
(d) The following short list of risk factors is responsible for
much of the burden of chronic disease: tobacco use, physical
inactivity, unhealthful diet, excessive consumption of alcohol,
hyperlipidemia, and uncontrolled high blood pressure. These risk
factors and chronic conditions are largely preventable, inequitably
distributed, and significantly influenced by the social determinants
of health.
(e) The State Department of Public Health estimates that as much
as 80 percent of heart disease, stroke, and type II diabetes and more
than 30 percent of cancers can be prevented by eliminating the
underlying risk factors.
(f) The economic burden of chronic disease in California weighs
heavily on families, employers, and all levels of government.
Approximately $98 billion, or 42 percent of all health care
expenditures in the state, was spent on treating just six common
chronic health conditions (arthritis, asthma, cardiovascular disease,
diabetes, cancer, and depression) in 2010.
(g) The indirect costs associated with chronic disease in
California are also high. According to the Economic Burden of Chronic
Disease (EBCD) Index, the projected impact of lower productivity and
lost workdays for individuals with chronic conditions and their
caregiving family members in California was estimated to be $51
billion in 2010.
(h) The cost of health care continues to surpass the rate of
inflation, causing increasing strain on the budgets of families,
employers, and the government. Yet the ability of healthcare
health care alone to solve health problems that
arise in the community is limited.
(i) Despite the fact that chronic disease results in decreased
quality of life, premature death, and exorbitant medical costs,
investments in measures that prevent chronic disease have been
minimal.
(j) The United States spends only 2.6 percent of health care
dollars on all public health, yet 75 percent of health care costs are
attributable to preventable health conditions.
(k) Paying for prevention works and upstream strategies have a
remarkable history of success, measured in both cost avoidance and
health improvement. In the County of Los Angeles, smoking
amongst among high school students fell from 27
percent to 7 percent between 1997 and 2013, thanks to investment in
policy and environmental changes as well as education.
(l) Childhood obesity amongst among
Los Angeles Unified School District 5th graders decreased by 10.6
percent (from 31.2 percent to 27.9 percent) between 2010 and 2013,
and leveled off among 7th and 9th graders, after nine years of steady
increases, reflecting investments to reduce the consumption of
sugar-sweetened beverages, promote healthier eating, and increase
physical activity.
(m) The California Health and Human Services Agency, in
partnership with the State Department of Public Health, has defined
ambitious health improvement goals for the state through the "Let's
Get Healthy California" initiative, including making California the
healthiest state in the nation by 2022, reducing health disparities,
and achieving better health at lower cost. These goals cannot be met
by improvements in health care or on an individual basis alone.
Meeting these goals requires urgent and substantial investment in
community-based prevention of chronic disease and injuries.
(n) The Health in All Policies Task Force was established by
Executive Order No. S-04-10 on February 23, 2010, under the auspices
of the Strategic Growth Council (SGC), in order to foster
multi-agency multiagency collaboration to
identify priority programs, policies, and strategies to improve the
health of Californians while advancing the SGC's goals of improving
air and water quality, protecting natural resources and agricultural
lands, increasing the availability of affordable housing, improving
infrastructure systems, promoting public health, planning sustainable
communities, and meeting the state's climate change goals.
(o) Senate Concurrent Resolution No. 47 (Resolution Chapter 56 of
the Statutes of 2012) affirms the work of the Health in All Policies
Task Force by encouraging public officials in all sectors and levels
of government to recognize that health is influenced by policies
related to air and water quality, natural resources and agricultural
land, affordable housing, infrastructure systems, public health,
sustainable communities, and climate change, and to consider health
when formulating policy, and by encouraging interdepartmental
collaboration with an emphasis on the complex environmental factors
that contribute to poor health and inequities when developing
policies in a wide variety of areas, including, but not limited to,
housing, transportation, education, air quality, parks, criminal
justice, and employment.
(p) The Office of Health Equity was established in Section
131019.5 of the Health and Safety Code in order to achieve the
highest level of health and mental health for all people, with
special attention focused on those who have experienced socioeconomic
disadvantage and historical injustice, and it directs the Office of
Health Equity to work collaboratively with the Health in All Policies
Task Force to promote work to prevent injury and illness through
improved social and environmental factors that promote health and
mental health.
(q) The existing limited resources of funding for chronic disease
prevention are threatened, declining from past levels, and subject to
significant restrictions.
(r) Strategic investment in upstream prevention will protect, not
deplete, the coffers of government. Investment in prevention has a
strong evidence base of positive return on investment through
reducing health care costs on a long-term basis.
106051. For purposes of this part, the following terms have the
