Opportunity Summary:

The Dental Reimbursement Program (DRP) is a discretionary grant opportunity administered by the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) under the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program (CFDA 93.924). It is designed to strengthen HIV-related oral health care by helping eligible dental and dental hygiene education institutions cover the unreimbursed costs of providing dental services to people living with HIV/AIDS, particularly low-income and underserved patients. In practice, the program is meant to reduce financial barriers that can limit access to oral health care for patients with HIV, while also ensuring that future dental providers receive meaningful training and experience delivering HIV/AIDS-related dental care.

A central goal of the DRP is twofold: first, to improve access to oral health services for individuals with HIV by supporting institutions that deliver care even when full reimbursement is not available; and second, to expand education, training, and clinical exposure for dental students, dental hygiene students, and dental residents so they are better prepared to treat patients with HIV/AIDS. The program emphasizes both direct service impact and workforce development, recognizing that building provider competence and comfort in HIV care is a key part of long-term access.

Eligibility is limited and specifically tied to accredited dental education. Applicants must be dental schools and other dental education programs described in the Public Health Service Act (as referenced in the announcement), including postdoctoral dental education programs sponsored by a school of dentistry, hospital, or other public or private institution that offers postdoctoral training in dental specialties, advanced education in general dentistry, or a dental general practice residency. Accredited dental hygiene programs recognized by the Commission on Dental Accreditation are also eligible. In other words, the funding is aimed at institutions that both provide clinical services and operate recognized educational programs capable of training students and residents in HIV-related oral health care.

From a funding and administrative standpoint, the opportunity was issued as HRSA-12-080, using the grant funding instrument, within the health activity category. HRSA anticipated making about 65 awards with an estimated total funding level of $9,000,000, and the opportunity did not require cost sharing or matching. The announcement was originally posted on January 12, 2012, with an application closing date of April 13, 2012, and an archive date of June 12, 2012, indicating it was a time-limited funding round rather than an open, continuously accepting program notice.

For applicants or interested parties who needed help accessing the full announcement, HRSA directed them to the HRSA Call Center (877-464-4772) or email support at CallCenter@HRSA.GOV. The full announcement was also made available through HRSA’s grants web portal via the link provided in the source information.
