Opportunity Summary:
The ARRA Training in Primary Care Medicine Interdisciplinary and Interprofessional Joint Graduate Degree grant (Funding Opportunity Number HRSA 10-236) was a Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) Recovery Act discretionary grant program designed to strengthen the primary care workforce by expanding interdisciplinary and interprofessional graduate education. The core purpose of the opportunity was to help institutions plan, develop, and operate joint graduate degree programs that combine primary care medicine or dentistry training with public health and other health professions education. In practical terms, the program aimed to produce clinicians and health professionals who can work effectively across disciplines, bringing a population health perspective into primary care settings and improving the system-level response to public health challenges.
Funding under this opportunity could be used to support joint degree program activities that deliver graduate training in areas closely tied to community health needs and public health preparedness. The announcement specifically highlighted training in environmental health, infectious disease control, disease prevention and health promotion, epidemiological studies, and injury control. The emphasis on these topics reflected Recovery Act priorities around workforce development, prevention, and building capacity to address emerging and ongoing health threats through coordinated, team-based approaches.
The opportunity anticipated a large national investment and broad participation. HRSA estimated total funding at $51,103,000 and expected to make about 100 awards. The program fell under CFDA 93.403 (ARRA Grants for Training in Primary Care Medicine and Dentistry Training and Enhancement). There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, which lowered barriers for eligible applicants and made it easier for institutions to launch or scale joint degree training models without needing to secure additional non-federal matching funds.
Eligibility was focused on accredited institutions capable of delivering high-quality clinical and academic training. Eligible applicants included accredited public or nonprofit private hospitals; schools of medicine or osteopathic medicine; academically affiliated physician assistant training programs; and other public or private nonprofit entities (including geographically separate campuses, allopathic and osteopathic) that the Secretary determined capable of carrying out the grant. A key condition was that the training activities must be conducted by an accredited entity, meaning either the applicant itself or a partner organization responsible for training had to hold appropriate accreditation. This requirement reinforced that funded programs would be embedded in established educational and clinical training environments.
Administratively, the grant was posted and created on April 22, 2010, with an original and final application deadline of May 21, 2010. The opportunity was later archived on July 20, 2010. The awarding agency was HRSA, and the funding instrument was a grant under the Recovery Act funding activity category.
