# cdc_chronic.disease.indicators Query the CDC U.S. Chronic Disease Indicators (CDI) dataset covering 19 chronic disease topics (diabetes, cardiovascular, cancer, asthma, tobacco, alcohol, arthritis, COPD, mental health, etc.) across all 50 US states + DC and national level. Filter by topic ID (e.g. DIA, CVD, TOB), specific question ID, state abbreviation (e.g. CA, TX, US for national), year range, and demographic stratification (Overall, Female, Male, age groups, race/ethnicity). Returns prevalence rates, confidence intervals, data source, and stratification. 398K records, data through 2023. Source: CDC CDI Socrata dataset hksd-2xuw. No auth — US Gov public domain.

From the tool's own definition: "Query the CDC U.S. Chronic Disease Indicators dataset, filter by topic, state, year, returns prevalence rates." ## Use case AI agents call cdc_chronic.disease.indicators to retrieve information from Apibase without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere. ## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer) Verdict: **Allowed**.
