H.R. 2422 would amend the Public Health Service Act to reauthorize and amend grant programs conducted by the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

CBO estimates that implementing H.R. 2422 would cost $133 million over the 2018-2022 period, assuming appropriation of the specified amounts.
Pay-as-you-go procedures do not apply to this legislation because it would not affect direct spending or revenues.
CBO estimates that enacting H.R. 2422 would not increase net direct spending or on-budget deficits in any of the four consecutive 10-year periods beginning in 2028.
H.R. 2422 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act.
