S. 466 would authorize the appropriation of $31 million for the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to identify and publish quality measures for maternal and infant health and to award grants to develop or expand collaborative activities related to maternity and infant care quality. CBO estimates that implementing S. 466 would cost $31 million over the 2016-2020 period, assuming appropriation of the specified amounts. Enacting S. 466 would not affect direct spending or revenues; therefore, pay-as-you-go procedures do not apply.
S. 466 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act.
