Justification: In fiscal year 2022, Congress provided additional funding for the PMHCA program and expanded the allowable activities for PMHCA programs to include support for hospital emergency departments to address the growing behavioral health needs among children and adolescents. This supplemental funding to the existing Emergency Medical Services for Children Innovation and Improvement Center recipient will support continued expansion of PMHCA programs in providing training and tele-consult support to providers in emergency departments and other settings, consistent with the additional authority enacted by Congress.

Administrator.
