327   $aBackground -- HHS uses CBRN risk assessments in determining investment priorities for developing and acquiring countermeasures but has not updated these priorities since 2007 -- HHS has begun to address most of its own recommendations with initiatives intended to improve medical countermeasure activities, but does not have an adequate strategy to monitor implementation -- HHS's PHEMCE and related written agreements have facilitated intradepartmental coordination, but challenges remain that may be addressed through HHS's new initiatives -- Conclusions.
