Amends two existing federal programs that support mental health for health care workers by extending their authorized program years to 2025–2029 and updating program rules. One amendment updates the Dr. Lorna Breen Health Care Provider Protection Act’s education and awareness initiative (adding language and shifting the date range). The other revises a Public Health Service Act mental‑health workforce support provision to redesignate a section, add an eligibility requirement that funded entities have a focus on reducing administrative burden for health care workers, and insert additional program text.
