Further Continuing Appropriations and Other Extensions Act, 2024

The Further Continuing Appropriations and Other Extensions Act, 2024 extends funding for numerous federal programs through January 19, 2024, preventing government shutdowns and funding lapses. It specifically continues critical health programs including community health centers ($690 million), National Health Service Corps ($53.5 million), and diabetes programs ($25.9 million) through the extended date. The bill also extends agricultural programs like crop support, conservation initiatives, and dairy margin coverage through fiscal year 2024, affecting farmers and rural communities. Additionally, it extends certain public health authorities and counter-UAS (unmanned aircraft system) capabilities through February 3, 2024. This continuing resolution maintains existing funding levels for essential services without creating new programs or altering policy.

Introduced in House → Engrossed in House · 5 edits · Nov 14, 2023
MODERATE
The engrossed version adds a new Title III for Miscellaneous Extensions containing a counter-drone (counter-UAS) authority extension to February 3, 2024, extends two Medicare/Medicaid-related dates from January 19 to January 20, 2024, and makes minor technical clarifications to National Health Security amendment language. The most significant policy addition is the new counter-UAS provision.
SCOPE

New Title III (Miscellaneous Extensions) with Section 601 extending counter-unmanned aerial systems (counter-drone) authorities under the Homeland Security Act from November 18, 2023 to February 3, 2024.

TIMELINE

Section 301: The delay of Medicaid disproportionate share payment (DSP) cuts was extended by one day, from January 19, 2024 to January 20, 2024.

Section 501: The Medicare physician work geographic index floor extension was changed from January 19, 2024 to January 20, 2024.

TECHNICAL

Section 203(b) and (c): Amendment language for National Health Security provisions was clarified to specify 'inserting after January 19, 2024' rather than simply 'inserting January 19, 2024,' making the statutory amendment more precise.

The former Title III (Budgetary Effects) was renumbered as Title IV and renumbered from section 601 to section 701 to accommodate the new Title III.
