Opportunity Summary:
The National Consumer Protection Technical Resource Center grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number HHS 2010 AOA NP 1011) was offered by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration on Aging (AoA), as a discretionary cooperative agreement under the Income Security and Social Services activity area. The core purpose of the award was to establish a single national technical resource center that could strengthen and unify the work of the 54 Senior Medicare Patrol (SMP) projects nationwide. In practical terms, the Center was intended to function as the go-to hub for professional expertise, hands-on technical assistance, and timely information, so that SMP projects could be more effective and consistent in their outreach and education efforts focused on healthcare integrity.
The Center's mission emphasized building a consolidated national approach to communicating healthcare fraud prevention messages to Medicare and Medicaid beneficiaries. That includes supporting SMP projects that educate older adults and other beneficiaries about recognizing, avoiding, and reporting fraud, waste, and abuse. The underlying idea was that local SMP projects are strongest when they are backed by a centralized organization that can provide standardized tools, shared best practices, training support, and rapid guidance, helping ensure that the SMP message is accurate, coordinated, and delivered effectively across all states and territories served by SMP programs.
This opportunity anticipated a single award, with an estimated total funding level of $690,000. The expected award size ranged from a floor of $660,000 to a ceiling of $690,000. The program required cost sharing or matching, meaning the recipient would need to contribute non-federal resources consistent with the announcement's requirements. Because the funding instrument was a cooperative agreement rather than a standard grant, applicants should have expected substantial federal involvement, typically including ongoing collaboration with the agency on program direction, deliverables, and performance expectations.
Eligibility was broad but limited to domestic entities, and it specifically included public or private nonprofit organizations. Examples of eligible applicants listed in the announcement included state and local governments, Indian tribal governments and organizations (including American Indian/Alaskan Native/Native American entities), faith-based organizations, community-based organizations, and institutions of higher education. The listing in the opportunity also referenced an "Others" category with additional clarifications expected in the full announcement text, signaling that applicants needed to review the detailed eligibility language in the full funding notice to confirm fit.
Key dates for the announcement were: a posted date of February 25, 2010; a creation date of March 10, 2010; and an application closing date of April 26, 2010 (with the original and current closing dates matching). The opportunity was archived on May 26, 2010. The CFDA number associated with the program was 93.048, Special Programs for the Aging, Title IV and Title II, Discretionary Projects, which places the opportunity within the broader federal aging services framework and highlights its connection to consumer protection and beneficiary support for older adults.
