Opportunity Summary:
The ARRA Training in Primary Care Medicine and Dentistry Residency Training (General and Pediatric Dentistry) grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number HRSA 10-073) was a one-time, Recovery Act-funded program run by the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) to help address nationwide shortages in the health care workforce. Backed by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, which set aside $500 million to strengthen the health professions pipeline, this specific funding opportunity focused on expanding training capacity in primary care medicine and dentistry, with an emphasis on residency-level training that would lead to more clinicians entering practice and serving patient needs.
This was a discretionary grant program (CFDA 93.403, ARRA Grants for Training in Primary Care Medicine and Dentistry Training and Enhancement) with an estimated total funding amount of $2,000,000 and an expectation of about five awards. HRSA’s core purpose in offering these funds was to increase the nation’s ability to respond to practitioner shortages by supporting organizations that train providers, particularly in areas of high demand like primary care and dental care. In practical terms, the funding was aimed at boosting residency training slots and strengthening training programs so that more qualified primary care physicians and general or pediatric dentists could be trained and moved into the workforce faster.
Eligibility was tied closely to accreditation, but it was not limited only to already-accredited applicants. The opportunity allowed both accredited and non-accredited entities to apply, with an important condition: either the applicant organization itself or a partner organization involved in carrying out the project had to be accredited under the standards described in the funding opportunity announcement. If the applicant was not accredited, it could still be considered only if the Secretary determined that the applicant was capable of successfully carrying out the grant. As part of the application, the applicant or its partner organization was required to provide a clear statement confirming accreditation status and to identify the accrediting body and the date of accreditation so HRSA could verify compliance. This structure was meant to keep training quality and oversight consistent while still allowing some flexibility for organizations that could demonstrate the capacity to deliver a compliant residency training project through accredited partnerships.
From an administrative standpoint, the opportunity was posted on February 24, 2010, created on February 25, 2010, and had an application deadline of March 24, 2010, with no cost sharing or matching requirement. The program was later archived on May 23, 2010, reflecting its time-limited Recovery Act nature. Applicants who had trouble accessing the full announcement were directed to HRSA’s call center for support, including email assistance at CallCenter@HRSA.GOV and phone options through HRSA’s support lines.
