submitted 82 years ago by Pub. L. 103-183 to r/title-42-THE-PUBLIC-HEALTH-AND-WELFARE · 305 words · no verdicts yet
The Secretary, through the CDC Director, may fund demonstration projects in up to three states already getting section 300k grants. These projects add extra preventive services like blood pressure and cholesterol screening, refer women for follow-up treatment, and evaluate the results. States must already be screening women for breast or cervical cancer under section 300k to qualify, and Congress only authorized this extra money if section 300n–5 funding reached at least $100,000,000 that year.
In the case of States receiving grants under section 300k of this title, the Secretary*, acting through the Director* of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, may make grants to not more than 3 such States to carry out demonstration projects for the purpose of—
providing preventive health services in addition to the services authorized in such section, including screenings regarding blood pressure and cholesterol, and including health education;
providing appropriate referrals for medical treatment* of women receiving services pursuant to paragraph (1) and ensuring, to the extent practicable, the provision of appropriate follow-up services; and
evaluating activities conducted under paragraphs (1) and (2) through appropriate surveillance or program-monitoring activities.
The Secretary may not make a grant under subsection (a) unless the State* involved agrees that services under the grant will be provided only through entities that are screening women for breast or cervical cancer pursuant to a grant under section 300k of this title.
This subchapter applies to a grant under subsection (a) to the same extent and in the same manner as such subchapter applies to a grant under section 300k of this title.
Subject to paragraph (2), for the purpose of carrying out this section, there are authorized to be appropriated $3,000,000 for fiscal year 1994, and such sums as may be necessary for each of the fiscal years 1995 through 2003.
The authorization of appropriations established in paragraph (1) is not effective for a fiscal year unless the amount appropriated under section 300n–5(a) of this title for the fiscal year is equal to or greater than $100,000,000.
