Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "ARRA - Training in Primary Care Medicine: Residency Training in Primary Care" (Funding Opportunity Number HRSA-10-235) was a discretionary grant program run by the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) using American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) funds. Its overall purpose was to expand and strengthen the pipeline of primary care physicians by supporting accredited residency and related training programs in the core primary care specialties: family medicine, general internal medicine, and general pediatrics. The program was designed to help institutions build capacity, improve training quality, and ultimately increase the number of clinicians prepared to practice primary care, especially in community-based settings where workforce shortages are often most visible.
Funding could be used in several practical ways tied directly to training. Applicants were allowed to use grant dollars to plan, develop, and operate (or participate in) accredited professional training programs, including accredited residency or internship programs. The eligible trainees could include medical students, interns, residents, and practicing physicians, as long as they fit the definitions established by the Secretary. Beyond direct program operations, the announcement also emphasized financial support for learners: the funds could be used to provide need-based financial assistance in the form of traineeships and fellowships. That support was meant for medical students and other medical personnel participating in qualifying programs who intended to specialize in, or work in, family medicine, general internal medicine, or general pediatrics. Another explicit use of funds was to support the training of physicians who teach in community-based settings, signaling that the program was not only about producing more trainees, but also about developing the faculty and teaching infrastructure needed to sustain high-quality primary care training outside large tertiary hospitals.
The competition anticipated making 78 awards, with an estimated total funding amount of $51,103,000. The assistance mechanism was a grant, and the activity category was health. Importantly, there was no cost sharing or matching requirement, which generally lowers the barrier to participation for safety-net providers, nonprofit teaching hospitals, and academic partners that may have limited discretionary funds.
Eligibility was focused on institutions with the capacity to run high-quality, accredited 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), as long as HRSA determined they were capable of carrying out the grant. A key condition was that the training activities had to be conducted by an accredited entity. In other words, either the applicant itself needed to be accredited for the relevant training, or it needed a partner organization that was accredited and responsible for the training component. This requirement reinforced that the funding was intended to expand and enhance recognized, standards-based training rather than create unaccredited programs.
From an administrative standpoint, the program was posted on April 22, 2010, with an application deadline of May 21, 2010, and it was later archived on July 20, 2010. The CFDA number associated with the opportunity was 93.403 (ARRA Grants for Training in Primary Care Medicine and Dentistry Training and Enhancement). For technical issues accessing the full announcement, HRSA directed applicants to the HRSA Call Center (CallCenter@HRSA.GOV) and provided phone contact options, reflecting the standard federal grant support structure for that period.
In practical terms, this opportunity was aimed at quickly boosting primary care training capacity during the ARRA era by supporting accredited residency and related programs, reducing financial barriers for trainees who planned to enter primary care, and strengthening community-based teaching and supervision so that training could occur in the settings where primary care is actually delivered.
