handle is hein.congrec/cbo11051 and id is 1 raw text is: CONGRESSIONAL BUDGET OFFICE COST ESTIMATE April 17, 2013 S. 689 Mental Health Awareness and Improvement Act of 2013 As ordered reported by the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions on April 10, 2013 SUMMARY S. 689 would amend the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 (the ESEA, commonly referred to, in its most recently authorized form, as the No Child Left Behind Act) to support school-based mental health programs and other activities. CBO estimates that implementing those amendments would require appropriations of about $100 million a year. The bill also would amend the Public Health Service Act to authorize the appropriation of $105 million for each of fiscal years 2014 through 2018 for suicide prevention and mental health services. CBO estimates that implementing the bill would cost $44 million in 2014 and about $800 million over the 2014-2018 period, assuming appropriation of the authorized and estimated amounts. Pay-as-you-go procedures do not apply to this legislation because it would not affect direct spending or revenues. S. 689 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 S. 689 is shown in the following table. The costs of this legislation fall within budget functions 500 (education, training, employment, and social services) and 550 (health).
