H.R. 3527
Poison Center Network Act
As ordered reported by the House Committee on Energy and Commerce
on December 11, 2013
SUMMARY
H.R. 3527 would reauthorize the poison control program, currently scheduled to expire in
2014, for the 2015-2019 period. The program, which is administered by the Health
Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), provides grants to poison centers and
other organizations that focus on poison control, funds a national media campaign, and
maintains a national toll-free number.
The bill would authorize the appropriation of about $30 million a year for each of fiscal
years 2015 through 2019 for the poison control program. CBO estimates that implementing
the bill would cost about $125 million over the 2015-2019 period, assuming appropriation
of the authorized amounts. Pay-as-you-go procedures do not apply to this legislation
because it would not affect direct spending or revenues.
The bill contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the
Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (UMRA).
ESTIMATED COST TO THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT
The estimated budgetary impact of H.R. 3527 is shown in the following table. The costs of
this legislation fall within budget function 550 (health).
