Opportunity Information: Apply for HRSA 17 055
The Service Area Competition (SAC) grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number HRSA-17-055) is a discretionary grant program administered by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services through the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA). It falls under the Health funding activity category and is listed under CFDA 93.224. The overall focus of this announcement is the Health Center Program, which funds patient-directed organizations that deliver primary and preventive health care in areas and to populations that are considered medically underserved across the United States.
The central purpose of the SAC funding opportunity is continuity of care. In practical terms, it is designed to ensure that communities and vulnerable populations who are already being served through the Health Center Program do not lose access to comprehensive primary health services when an existing service area is up for competition. The program emphasizes care that is not only clinically sound and high quality, but also culturally competent, meaning services should be delivered in ways that are responsive to the language, culture, and needs of the patients and communities served. The SAC mechanism helps HRSA maintain stable access to essential frontline health care services, especially for people who might otherwise face barriers such as lack of insurance, limited provider availability, geographic isolation, poverty, or other factors tied to medical underservice.
Awards under this announcement are made as grants, and HRSA anticipated making about 189 awards under this competition. The notice lists an award ceiling of 0, which typically signals that a single fixed maximum amount is not being stated in the synopsis and that actual funding levels may vary depending on the specific service area, scope of services, and other program or budget considerations laid out in the full announcement. Eligibility is identified broadly as "Others," with additional eligibility details referenced in the full funding notice; this generally indicates that applicants must fit specific Health Center Program requirements, commonly involving public or private nonprofit status and governance structures that reflect patient direction and community accountability, consistent with health center program rules.
The opportunity was created on October 12, 2016, with an original application closing date of December 12, 2016. Overall, SAC is best understood as a competitive process that supports the continued delivery of comprehensive, culturally competent, quality primary and preventive health care services in designated service areas, protecting ongoing access for medically underserved communities that already rely on Health Center Program-supported providers.Apply for HRSA 17 055
