Opportunity Summary:

The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) Supplemental for Innovative Projects to Improve Reimbursement in Public Health Department Clinics is a 2009 funding opportunity from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) designed to help public health department clinics strengthen how they bill and collect payment from health insurance plans. The core aim is capacity-building: supporting state and local health department clinics in developing or improving systems and processes so they can bill health insurance for services delivered to insured patients. In practice, this kind of work typically involves modernizing billing operations, improving administrative workflows, and reducing barriers that prevent public clinics from receiving reimbursement for eligible services, which can help sustain and expand public health services over time.

This opportunity was offered as a cooperative agreement, meaning recipients would generally carry out the project with substantial CDC involvement or collaboration compared with a standard grant. It falls under the health activity category and was posted on June 2, 2009, with applications due by 5:00 PM Eastern Time on July 2, 2009. The opportunity was later archived on August 1, 2009. The total estimated funding available was approximately $5,000,000 in fiscal year 2009, with CDC anticipating about 15 awards. Individual awards could be as high as $800,000, and there was no stated minimum award amount (award floor listed as $0). There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants were not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving an award.

Eligibility was limited and specific. The announcement indicates that only current applicants already funded under the earlier CDC funding announcement RFA IP08-803 were eligible to apply for this ARRA supplemental funding. The listing labels eligible applicants broadly as "Others" but clarifies that the intended pool was restricted to those existing funded applicants under that prior mechanism, so this was not an open competition for all organizations or jurisdictions.

For reference and administrative details, the funding opportunity number is CDC RFA IP08 80302ARRA09. Anyone who had trouble accessing the full announcement electronically was directed to contact PGO TIMS by phone at 770-488-2700, with a general email contact referenced but not fully provided in the excerpt.
