Opportunity Summary:
The HIV Early Intervention Services (EIS) Program Existing Geographic Service Areas (EISEGA) funding opportunity (HRSA-12-014) is a discretionary grant competition run by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), under the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program Part C. It is aimed specifically at supporting outpatient HIV primary care through Early Intervention Services in geographic areas that were already being served by existing Part C EIS grantees whose project periods were ending on December 31, 2011. In practical terms, HRSA used this announcement both to allow current providers to compete for continuation funding and to allow new applicants to compete to serve those same established service areas.
The core purpose of this program is to ensure that people with HIV have access to a full continuum of outpatient primary medical care and related early intervention services. Applicants are expected to propose a comprehensive approach that includes, at minimum, four major service components: (1) HIV counseling, testing, and referral, meaning activities that help identify people with HIV and connect them promptly to care; (2) medical evaluation and clinical care, which covers the essential outpatient clinical assessment and ongoing HIV treatment provided by qualified clinicians; (3) other primary care services, reflecting the broader range of outpatient primary care needs that commonly accompany HIV care; and (4) referrals to other health services, emphasizing strong linkages and care coordination so clients can access additional medical, behavioral health, and supportive services beyond what the applicant directly provides. The overall intent is to support early identification and rapid linkage to sustained, high-quality outpatient HIV care within the targeted community.
Funding under this announcement was substantial. HRSA anticipated making about 98 awards, with an estimated total funding amount of $70,921,088. The program is associated with CFDA number 93.918 (Grants to Provide Outpatient Early Intervention Services with Respect to HIV Disease). There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, which generally lowers the barrier to entry for eligible organizations and allows applicants to focus on program design, capacity, and service delivery rather than securing non-federal matching funds.
Eligibility had specific compliance requirements tied to the delivery of clinical services. All applicants, including current grantees, were required to document Medicaid provider status. If an applicant was not itself a Medicaid provider, it could meet this requirement by documenting formal agreements with Medicaid providers to deliver all services covered under the state Medicaid plan. A narrow waiver was available for free clinics that do not charge for services and do not accept reimbursement from Medicaid, Medicare, or private insurance. In addition, applicants had to document that they were fully licensed to provide clinical services as required by their state and/or local jurisdiction. Importantly, both Medicaid provider status (or qualifying arrangements/waiver conditions) and appropriate licensure had to be in place before the application was submitted, meaning organizations could not propose to obtain these credentials later as part of a start-up plan.
From a timeline standpoint, the opportunity was posted on May 9, 2011, and had an application closing date of July 1, 2011 (the original and current closing dates were the same). The announcement was later archived on August 30, 2011. HRSA provided a standard support channel for applicants who had trouble accessing the full announcement, directing them to the HRSA Call Center via email (CallCenter@HRSA.gov) and phone (877-464-4772, with an alternate number listed as 301-998-7373). The full announcement was available through HRSA’s grants web portal at the link included in the notice.
