Congress.gov lists S.2539 as law, Public Law No. 113-196, after Senate passage by unanimous consent and House passage without objection. CRS summary says it reauthorized TBI prevention and surveillance or registry programs and grants for TBI services through FY2019, and required improved federal coordination on TBI diagnostic tools and treatments.

A later reauthorization further extended and improved federal TBI prevention, surveillance, services, coordination, and treatment-related programs during Calvert's later House service.

Assessments

delivered same_term

The promised federal outcome was enacted during Calvert's House service: Public Law 110-206, the Traumatic Brain Injury Act of 2008, reauthorized and improved federal TBI prevention, surveillance/detection, treatment, rehabilitation, NIH, CDC, and HRSA grant programs. A later 2014 reauthorization further extended related programs, but the 2008 enactment is sufficient for same-term delivery.
