Poison Control Program Competitive Supplement
This notice announces the opportunity to apply for funding under the Poison Control Centers (PCC) Program for coverage of calls to the Poison Help Line originating from Puerto Rico.

Collect data related to poisonings and poisoning outcomes; and 5. Use data to inform public health and emergency preparedness responses.
These will be accomplished by:
1. Maintaining the number of calls[1] received by the Poison Help Line.
2. Maintaining the percentage of human exposure poisoning case calls from health care facilities and practitioners.
3. Increasing the percentage of human exposure poisoning cases with a completed follow-up contact.
4. Increasing national data on poisonings available in the National Poison Data System (NPDS) for toxic exposure surveillance purposes.
