Bill Summary

A bill to amend the Congressional Budget Act of 1974 respecting the scoring of preventive health savings. This bill requires the Congressional Budget Office, upon receiving a request from Congress, to determine if legislation would reduce spending outside of the 10-year budget window through the use of preventive health and preventive health services.

AI Summary

This bill amends the Congressional Budget Act of 1974 to require the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) to determine, upon request by certain congressional committees, whether proposed legislation would result in reductions in budget outlays in future years through the use of preventive health and preventive health services. If the CBO determines that the legislation would result in substantial reductions in budget outlays, the CBO must include a description and estimate of those reductions in its budget projections, and may prepare budget projections that include more than the standard 10-year time period. The bill defines "budgetary outyears" and "preventive health" for the purposes of this new requirement.
