CDC's structure, processes, and systems to more efficiently and effectively protect the health, safety, and security of Americans. As part of this initiative, CDC implemented 160+ key actions identified as critical to driving accountability, collaboration, communication, and timeliness. With action implementation completed in November 2024, the agency is better positioned to respond to and tackle future public health threats, while continuing the important day-to-day work of disease control and prevention. CDC remains committed to building upon the momentum established through CDC Moving Forward to seek and pursue additional ways to enhance its services to better serve the American public.</p> <div class="dfe-section__nav hide" id="dfe-section__nav"> <div class="dfe-section__nav__header" id="dfe-section__nav__header"> </div> <div class="dfe-section__nav-links" id="dfe-section__nav-links"> </div> </div> </div> <div class="dfe-section__image" id="page-summary-image"> <figure class="dfe-image dfe-image__large"><div class="image-container calculated-ratio-16-9 aspect-ratio-16-9"><img src="/about/media/images/CDCMovingForwardLogo16.9.PNG" alt="CDC Moving Forward logo" title="— title missing —"></div></figure> </div> </div> </div> <div class="cdc-dfe-body__center "> <div class="dfe-section" data-section="cdc_generic_section_1"> <a class="onThisPageAnchor" id="cdc_generic_section_1-cdc-moving-forward" name="CDC%20Moving%20Forward" title="CDC Moving Forward"></a><h2 class="editor-block--title" id="heading-cpexeyawzm">CDC Moving Forward</h2> <p>CDC Moving Forward represents CDC's efforts to transform how the agency operates by refining and modernizing its structures, systems, and processes to address longstanding challenges and strengthen its ability to deliver on its core mission: to protect the health, safety, and security of Americans.</p> <p>Over the past 20 years, the world has seen and dealt with the emergence of new diseases, such as H1N1, COVID-19, and MPox, all while working to address long standing public health challenges, such as diabetes, cancer, and maternal mortality. In April 2022, CDC leadership launched a <a href="/about/cdc-moving-forward/index.html" class="">review</a> to identify how CDC can modernize systems and processes to better share science and data to better serve and protect the American public.

Users report the new look & feel, layout, and approach to messaging improved the site's usability and effectiveness.<ul> </ul> </li> <li class="level-1">Through the Scientific Clearance Transformation Initiative, CDC has reduced, streamlined, and expedited the development and review/approval process (i.e., "clearance") for scientific publications and data, including laboratory data, reducing median clearance times by 50% and increasing the percent of manuscripts that clear in 15 business days or less by more than 120%.<ul> </ul> </li> <li class="level-1">CDC is enhancing its strategy for mobilizing responders to public health emergencies by implementing an expanded CDCReady Responder program comprised of all internal CDC staff and supported by updated policies, systems, training, and performance management practices. Since the January 2023 launch, 3,240+ staff have enrolled in 100+ roles across 15 cadres.<ul> </ul> </li> <li class="level-1">In 2022, CDC increased laboratory capacity for responses by developing a formalized process with eight federal and private sector laboratory partners. The agreement defines a process for all labs to work together to provide laboratory testing capacity, coordination, and communication during a large-scale emergency. During the Mpox response, this new framework increased testing capacity from 6,000 tests per week to 60,000 tests per week.<ul> </ul> </li> <li class="level-1">CDC launched electronic case reporting (eCR) nationwide, replacing manual reporting with a secure, electronic system that increases timeliness and completeness of data, reduces burdens for health care providers, and provides real-time reports for disease tracking, case management, and contact tracing. Over 30,000 health care facilities in all 50 states are using eCR.<ul> </ul> </li> <li class="level-1">In October 2024, the <a href="https://www.cdc.gov/respiratory-viruses/data/index.html">Respiratory Illnesses Data Channel</a> launched, which summarizes findings across respiratory illness types into a weekly snapshot of the most local data available for each condition, explaining what is important and why.
