Pennsylvania Department of Health is a cabinet-level agency in Pennsylvania. It was established in 1905 and later modified by the Administrative Code of 1929.[1][2] In 1996, the requirement for the Secretary to be a physician was eliminated and the position of Physician General was created.[1][3] The Department of Health utilizes community-based strategies to reduce serious illnesses, injuries, and deaths from major health threats, tobacco-related diseases, infectious diseases, and accidental injuries. Its mission has evolved to address the changing landscape of public health, providing programs and services aimed at promoting healthy behaviors, preventing injury and disease, and ensuring the safe delivery of quality healthcare for all Pennsylvania citizens.[1]
