Syllabus 

___, ___.  Nothing suggests that Congress intended §2679(b) to repeal
§233(a)’s more comprehensive immunity.  P. 10. 

(4) Respondents’ contention that other features of §233 show that 
§233(a) does not make the FTCA remedy exclusive of all other actions 
against  PHS  personnel  is  rejected.    Neither  §233(c)  nor  §233(f)  indi-
cates that an injured party may maintain a Bivens action against an
individual  PHS  officer  or  employee  in  these  circumstances.    Pp. 10– 
12. 

546 F. 3d 682, reversed and remanded. 

SOTOMAYOR, J., delivered the opinion for a unanimous Court.
