4月28日（路透社）——由小罗伯特·F·肯尼迪担任部长监管的美国卫生与公众服务部周二发起提名征集，为这个决定患者可免费获得哪些预防性医疗服务的权威专家小组补充成员。
预防服务工作组通常有16名成员，上次会议已在一年多前召开。连续三次计划中的会议均被取消，且尚未任命新成员来替换5名任期于12月到期的志愿者。

“这个工作组一直漫不经心，没有履行自身职责，”肯尼迪本月早些时候在众议院委员会会议上表示。
卫生与公众服务部下属一个部门周二表示，正在征集临床医生和研究人员提名加入该工作组，“包括但不限于”心脏病学、肿瘤学、妇产科学、儿科学、家庭医学和卫生经济学等专业领域。提名提交截止日期为5月23日。
医学专家表示，肯尼迪搁置该工作组的做法，已推迟了癌症、心脏病及其他病症筛查指南的更新工作。

April 28 (Reuters) – The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, overseen by Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., on Tuesday asked for nominations to the influential task force that decides which preventive medical care is provided at no cost to patients.
The Preventive Services Task Force, which typically has 16 members, last met over a year ago. Three successive planned meetings were canceled and new members have not been named to replace the five volunteers whose terms expired in December.

“That task force has been lackadaisical. It’s not been doing its job,” Kennedy told a House committee earlier this month.
A division of HHS on Tuesday said it is seeking clinicians and researchers to be nominated to the task force “including but not limited to” specialties such as cardiology, oncology, obstetrics/gynecology, pediatrics, family medicine and health economics. Nominations are due by May 23.
Medical experts say Kennedy’s sidelining of the panel has delayed updates to screening guidelines for cancer, heart disease and other conditions.
