Opportunity Summary:
National Indian Health Outreach and Education III - Health Reform is a discretionary cooperative agreement offered by the Department of Health and Human Services through the Indian Health Service (IHS). The opportunity is designed to strengthen coordination among national Indian organizations, IHS, and Tribal partners so they can deliver consistent, high-quality training and technical assistance across Indian Country focused on health reform. At its core, it is meant to help the Indian health care system and American Indian/Alaska Native (AI/AN) people better understand and use the coverage and policy changes created by the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and the Indian Health Care Improvement Act (IHCIA).
The central purpose of the program is practical: improve Indian health care by making sure Tribes, Tribal organizations, and AI/AN community members are fully prepared to take advantage of newer health insurance coverage options. By increasing knowledge and capacity around enrollment pathways and health insurance rules, the program aims to expand access to services, improve quality of care, and bring additional financial resources into the Indian health care system. A major emphasis is on communicating and explaining the health insurance options available to AI/AN individuals and families through the Health Insurance Marketplace, as well as clarifying how ACA and IHCIA authorities affect Tribal and IHS health programs.
This is a limited competition cooperative agreement, meaning the agency expects an active partnership role with awardees rather than a hands-off grant. The work is intended to operate at a national scale and serve all 567 federally recognized Tribes and Tribal organizations, focusing on broad outreach, education, and technical assistance that can be applied across many different communities and program settings. In practice, that typically implies developing training materials, hosting trainings or webinars, providing subject-matter assistance to Tribal and IHS stakeholders, and helping partners interpret and implement relevant ACA/IHCIA provisions in ways that make sense locally.
Funding is capped at an award ceiling of $125,000 per award, and IHS anticipated making two awards under this announcement. The funding opportunity number is HHS 2016 IHS NIHOE 3 HEALTH REFORM 0001, and it is listed under CFDA 93.933 within the health activity category. Eligible applicants include 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations (excluding institutions of higher education) and other entities as described in the announcement’s additional eligibility language. The announcement was created on July 27, 2016, with an original application deadline of August 25, 2016, and electronic submissions were due by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the closing date.
