Opportunity Summary:
The Health Information Technology (HIT) Capacity Building for Monitoring and Improving Health Outcomes Along the HIV Care Continuum Technical Assistance Center (TAC) opportunity (HRSA-14-088) is a FY 2014 discretionary cooperative agreement from the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA). Its purpose is to fund one organization to serve as a national technical assistance center that helps up to four Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program Part A or Part B jurisdictions strengthen their health information technology capabilities in ways that improve monitoring and performance across the HIV care continuum. The TAC is designed to function as a hands-on support hub, providing targeted guidance to a small cohort of grantees that are being funded separately under HRSA-14-057 to upgrade or expand their HIT systems within a state, Eligible Metropolitan Area (EMA), or Transitional Grant Area (TGA).
The core structure of the program is intentionally paired: HRSA-14-057 funds up to four “capacity building sites” to implement HIT enhancements locally, while HRSA-14-088 funds a single TAC awardee to support those sites through technical assistance. In practical terms, the TAC awardee is expected to help these jurisdictions make their data systems more useful for tracking client outcomes and program performance, and for identifying and addressing gaps along the HIV care continuum (for example, improving the ability to monitor linkage to care, retention in care, antiretroviral therapy use, and viral suppression). Because the funding mechanism is a cooperative agreement, HRSA typically anticipates substantial federal involvement, meaning the awardee should be prepared to coordinate closely with HRSA on planning, implementation support, and progress monitoring rather than operating entirely independently.
The award profile is small and focused: HRSA expected to make one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $250,000. The announcement lists no cost sharing or matching requirement. The posting date was February 5, 2014, and the application closing date was March 31, 2014, with the opportunity later archived on May 30, 2014. The funding falls under CFDA 93.928, Special Projects of National Significance, which generally signals an emphasis on demonstration, innovation, and scalable approaches that can inform broader Ryan White Program improvement efforts.
Eligibility is broad and includes academic institutions and nonprofit organizations (including faith-based organizations), as well as entities eligible for Ryan White funding under Parts A through D of Title XXVI of the Public Health Service Act, as amended by the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Treatment Extension Act of 2009. In addition, a range of U.S. jurisdictions are eligible, including the District of Columbia, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, U.S. territories (such as the U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam, American Samoa, and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands), and several Freely Associated States (the Republic of Palau, the Federated States of Micronesia, and the Republic of the Marshall Islands). Federally recognized Indian Tribal Governments are also eligible to apply. This wide eligibility pool reflects HRSA’s interest in identifying an organization with the technical depth and operational capacity to support geographically diverse Ryan White settings and varying levels of HIT maturity.
At a high level, an applicant for the TAC role would be expected to bring strong expertise in health information technology, public health data systems, and HIV program performance measurement, with the ability to translate that expertise into practical support for on-the-ground Ryan White administrators and providers. The TAC’s value proposition is not simply producing reports or high-level recommendations; it is helping the funded jurisdictions implement workable solutions, strengthen data quality and interoperability where feasible, and use improved information systems to drive continuous quality improvement across the HIV care continuum.
For assistance accessing the full announcement or resolving application issues, HRSA directed applicants to the HRSA Grants Application Center in Gaithersburg, Maryland, and provided the HRSA Call Center contact information (877-464-4772 or CallCenter@HRSA.GOV).
