健康素养处于健康与教育的交叉点，不仅仅涉及阅读能力。对健康素养能力的研究表明，许多医疗保健需求最大的美国人理解在美国医疗保健系统中导航和运作所需信息的能力最差。本文将健康素养定义为一个重要的政策问题，并提供了创建一个具有健康素养的美国的策略。
Health literacy, at the intersection of health and education, involves more than reading ability. Studies of health literacy abilities show that many Americans with the greatest health care needs have the least ability to comprehend information required to navigate and function in the U.S. health care system. This paper defines health literacy as an important policy issue and offers strategies for creating a health-literate America.
