Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) Administrator Dr. Mehmet Oz called upon hospitals to join the effort to make their food healthier, stating that “hospitals should be places of healing.”
In a video posted to X, Kennedy announced that they were calling for hospitals to “commit to serving healthier minimally processed food” and putting nutrition back “at the center of patient care.” Kennedy also announced that they were calling for hospitals to take the voluntary, Make Hospital Food Healthier Food Pledge.
“Today, we’re launching the Make Hospital Food Healthier Pledge and calling on hospitals across America to join us,” Kennedy said. “Hospitals should be places of healing, that includes the food they serve. Patients deserve meals made with real nutritious ingredients that support recovery, not highly processed foods that contribute to the chronic disease crisis.”
