(a) NIH study
The Director of the National Institutes of Health shall evaluate any evidence published on or prior to the date of enactment of this Act that relates to—

(b) U.S. Preventive Services Task Force study
The Secretary of Health and Human Services, acting through the United States Preventive Services Task Force, shall review any evidence published on or prior to the date of enactment of this Act related to the clinical utility of hormone testing, including whether baseline information obtained on the hormone levels of a woman before such woman experiences symptoms of perimenopause meaningfully informs the diagnosis or management of perimenopause for such woman.
