(Sec. 2) This bill amends the Public Health Service Act to establish within the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) the National Clinical Care Commission to evaluate and recommend solutions regarding better coordination and leveraging of federal programs that relate to supporting clinical care for individuals with a complex metabolic or autoimmune disease, diabetes, or complications caused by such a disease.

The duties of the commission include:
