Which agency is listed as part of the federal government's health oversight roles?

• A. FDA
• B. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
• C. AHRQ
• D. HRSA

Answer: (B)

The question looks for the federal agency whose role centers on overseeing public health at the population level—monitoring health, guiding prevention, and coordinating responses to health threats. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention fits this best because its core functions are disease surveillance, outbreak investigation, prevention guidelines, and disseminating health information to protect public health. While other agencies contribute to health in specific ways—FDA regulates safety of foods and medical products, AHRQ funds research to improve care quality, and HRSA works on expanding access to care and strengthening the workforce—they are not the primary body responsible for broad health oversight.
