Opportunity Summary:
The HIV Early Intervention Services (EIS) Program Existing Geographic Service Areas (EISEGA) grant (Funding Opportunity Number HRSA-13-252) is a discretionary grant opportunity from the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) under CFDA 93.918, focused on strengthening and continuing outpatient HIV primary care through the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program Part C. The central aim is to ensure that people living with HIV have timely access to a full, coordinated set of early intervention and primary care services in defined service areas, with an emphasis on getting individuals into care as early as possible after infection while still allowing entry at any stage of disease or at any point across the lifespan.
Applicants are expected to propose a comprehensive continuum of outpatient HIV primary care services within the targeted geographic area. HRSA describes four core expectations for the service model: (1) targeted HIV counseling, testing, and referral services to identify individuals who are HIV positive and connect them to care; (2) medical evaluation and clinical care, which generally includes clinical assessment and ongoing HIV treatment in an outpatient setting; (3) other primary care services that support whole-person health needs commonly associated with HIV care; and (4) referrals to other health services, recognizing that patients often require wraparound supports and specialty care beyond what a single clinic can provide. The program is designed to function as an entry point and ongoing medical home for people with HIV, ensuring continuity rather than episodic care.
Eligibility is structured around maintaining service continuity in existing Part C EIS geographic areas. This competition is open to (1) existing Part C EIS grantees whose project periods end March 31, 2013, (2) new organizations seeking to replace a current grantee, and (3) applicants competing for open service areas as outlined by HRSA (referenced as Appendix B in the announcement). A key requirement for replacement applicants is continuity: organizations proposing to replace an existing grantee must demonstrate they will continue serving the current patients and maintain the same target populations, scope of services, and service areas already being served. They must also explicitly identify the grantee they intend to replace, which signals that HRSA is prioritizing uninterrupted care and stable service delivery for established patient populations.
A wide range of public and nonprofit private entities may apply, including state governments, counties, cities or townships, special district governments, independent school districts, and certain tribal organizations (including Native American tribal organizations that are not federally recognized), as well as 501(c)(3) nonprofits (excluding institutions of higher education). Faith-based and community-based organizations are specifically noted as eligible. However, there are additional constraints for new organizations intending to replace a current grantee: they must be public entities or nonprofit private entities that fall into specific provider categories tied to safety-net and specialized care settings. These categories include federally qualified health centers, certain family planning grantees, comprehensive hemophilia diagnostic and treatment centers, rural health clinics, Indian Health Service-operated or contracted facilities, and other community-based organizations, clinics, hospitals, and health facilities that provide early intervention services to individuals infected through intravenous drug use, as well as nonprofits that provide comprehensive primary care to populations at risk for HIV/AIDS.
From a funding and administrative standpoint, HRSA anticipated making 14 awards with an estimated total funding level of $5,901,444, and the opportunity does not require cost sharing or matching. The announcement was posted September 18, 2012, with an application closing date of October 22, 2012, and an archive date of December 20, 2012. For applicants needing help accessing the full announcement or navigating submission requirements, HRSA provided support through the HRSA Contact Center (CallCenter@HRSA.GOV and 877-464-4772), and the funding notice included an online link to the full solicitation materials.
Overall, this opportunity is best understood as a continuation and service-area stability initiative within Ryan White Part C: it funds outpatient HIV primary care programs that can demonstrate they will deliver a full early intervention and primary care continuum, keep patients connected to treatment, and preserve access in established geographic areas, particularly when a current provider is recompeting or being replaced.
