Opportunity Summary:
The ARRA Training in Primary Care Medicine and Dentistry Pre-doctoral Training in Primary Care grant (Funding Opportunity Number HRSA-10-072) was a discretionary grant program administered by the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) to help address health workforce shortages in the United States. It was funded under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA), which set aside a total of $500,000,000 to respond to shortages across the health professions. In this particular competition, HRSA made targeted funding available to strengthen the nations pipeline of primary care clinicians by supporting pre-doctoral training efforts in primary care medicine and dentistry.
The opportunity used a grant funding instrument and fell under the health funding activity category. HRSA projected making about 30 awards, with an estimated total funding amount of $12,000,000. The program was associated with CFDA number 93.403, listed as ARRA Grants for Training in Primary Care Medicine and Dentistry (Training and Enhancement). Importantly for applicants planning budgets, the announcement specified that there was no cost-sharing or matching requirement, meaning applicants were not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of the award.
In terms of timing, the opportunity was posted on February 24, 2010, with a closing date of March 24, 2010 (both the original and current closing dates matched). The record shows it was later archived on May 23, 2010, indicating that it was a time-limited ARRA-era funding competition rather than an ongoing annual program cycle.
Eligibility was described broadly as "Others" with further clarification in the full announcement, but the central eligibility condition emphasized accreditation. Applicants needed to meet accreditation-related requirements tied to the entities permitted under the program. The rules allowed both accredited and non-accredited organizations to apply, but with a key limitation: either the applicant organization itself or a partner organization had to be accredited. If the applicant was not accredited, it could only be considered eligible if the Secretary determined that the organization was capable of carrying out the grant. As part of the application, the applicant or partner organization was required to provide a formal statement confirming accreditation, including the name of the accrediting body and the date of accreditation so HRSA could verify the status. In practical terms, HRSA was signaling that training quality, oversight, and institutional capacity were non-negotiable, even while leaving a pathway open for non-accredited applicants who could demonstrate capability through an accredited partner or a special determination.
The overall purpose of the funding was to expand training capacity and improve the nations ability to respond to shortages of health care practitioners, with a particular emphasis on primary care disciplines. While the short synopsis does not list specific program activities, the title and ARRA workforce framing indicate the grants were intended to support pre-doctoral education and training experiences that encourage entry into primary care practice and help produce more primary care physicians and primary care dentists, contributing to a larger, better-prepared workforce.

HRSA also included support channels for access issues, directing people to the HRSA Call Center by email at CallCenter@HRSA.GOV and by phone at 877-464-4772 (also listed as 877-Go4-HRSA), with an alternate number shown as 301-998-7373.
