Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity, titled "ARRA - Training in Primary Care Medicine and Dentistry: Physician Assistant Training in Primary Care" (Funding Opportunity Number HRSA-10-054), was a discretionary federal grant program administered by the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA). It was funded through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) of 2009, which was signed into law on February 17, 2009 and included a total of $500,000,000 intended to help address national health professions workforce shortages. Within that broader ARRA investment, this specific opportunity focused on strengthening the pipeline of primary care clinicians by supporting physician assistant (PA) training efforts tied to primary care delivery, with the overall purpose of increasing the nation’s capacity to respond to shortages of health care practitioners.
The program used a grant funding instrument and fell under the health funding activity category. HRSA anticipated making about 10 awards under this announcement, with an estimated total funding level of $8,000,000 across all awards. The relevant CFDA listing was 93.403, described as ARRA Grants for Training in Primary Care Medicine and Dentistry: Training and Enhancement. The opportunity did not require cost sharing or matching, meaning applicants were not obligated to provide non-federal matching funds as a condition of award.
The application timeline was centered in early 2010. The opportunity was posted on February 24, 2010 (with a creation date of February 25, 2010). The original and current closing date were the same: March 24, 2010. The archive date was May 23, 2010, indicating the opportunity was time-limited and is now closed.
Eligibility was described broadly as "Others" with additional clarification in the funding announcement, but the key eligibility condition emphasized accreditation. HRSA specified that there were accreditation requirements for eligible entities and that both accredited and non-accredited organizations could apply under certain conditions. The central rule was that either the applicant organization itself or a partner organization had to be accredited, and the application had to include a statement confirming accreditation, naming the accrediting body, and providing the date of accreditation so HRSA could verify it. Non-accredited applicants were only considered eligible if the Secretary determined they were capable of carrying out the grant, which effectively made accreditation (directly or through a partner) the standard path to eligibility. To receive grant funds under this primary care medicine and dentistry training authority, the applicant or partner organization needed to meet the accreditation standard as detailed in the full funding opportunity announcement.
For access to the complete announcement and official requirements, HRSA provided an additional information link through its grants portal. Applicants who had trouble accessing the full announcement electronically were directed to contact the HRSA Call Center via CallCenter@HRSA.GOV or by phone at 877-464-4772 (also listed as 877-Go4-HRSA), with an alternate number provided as 301-998-7373.
