Opportunity Summary:

The Recovery Act (ARRA) Training in Primary Care Medicine and Dentistry Administrative Academic Units grant opportunity (HRSA-10-043) was a Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) funding announcement designed to quickly expand and strengthen the nation s primary care and dental workforce pipeline using one time Recovery Act resources. The program targeted multiple points in the training pathway, with the overall intent of increasing training capacity, improving the quality and reach of education, and supporting institutions that prepare clinicians for primary care practice. Rather than focusing on a single type of trainee or school, the announcement was structured to support several complementary program areas under the broader umbrella of primary care medicine and dentistry training and enhancement.

The opportunity covered support for academic administrative units as well as several distinct training tracks: residency training in family medicine, general internal medicine, and general pediatrics; predoctoral training in primary care medicine and dentistry; faculty development training; physician assistant (PA) training; and general and pediatric dental residency training programs. In practical terms, the funding was meant to help organizations expand or improve the educational infrastructure that produces primary care physicians, PAs, and dentists, and to strengthen the faculty and administrative systems needed to sustain those training programs. Because it was an ARRA funded initiative, the emphasis was on timely impact and measurable enhancement of training capacity and workforce development activities.

HRSA expected to make about 10 awards from an estimated total of 5,000,000 dollars in funding. The award instrument and category were listed as "Other," and the assistance listing (CFDA) associated with the program was 93.403, identified as ARRA Grants for Training in Primary Care Medicine and Dentistry Training and Enhancement. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, which lowered the barrier for eligible institutions to apply and allowed applicants to focus resources on programmatic improvements rather than assembling required matching funds.

Eligibility was broad in the sense that it allowed both accredited and certain non accredited entities to apply, but it was tightly conditioned on accreditation. The key rule was that either the applicant organization itself or a partner organization had to be accredited, and applicants had to include a clear statement confirming accreditation, naming the accrediting body and the date of accreditation so HRSA could verify eligibility. Non accredited applicants could only be considered if the Secretary determined that the entity was capable of carrying out the grant, which effectively meant that accreditation or a strong accredited partnership was central to being competitive and compliant.

The announcement spelled out specific accreditation standards depending on the training area. Schools of Medicine or Osteopathic Medicine needed accreditation by the Liaison Committee on Medical Education (LCME) or the American Osteopathic Association (AOA). Residency training programs in family medicine, general internal medicine, and or general pediatrics needed accreditation by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) or the AOA. Physician assistant programs were required to be accredited by the Accreditation Review Commission on Education for the Physician Assistant (ARC-PA). For residency training in general and pediatric dentistry, the announcement referenced accreditation by the American Dental Education Association (ADEA). For faculty development, applicants had to come from an organization accredited by one of the listed bodies (LCME, AOA, ACGME, and ARC-PA), reflecting the expectation that faculty development would be anchored in institutions with recognized medical or PA educational accreditation.

From an administrative standpoint, the opportunity was posted on February 24, 2010, with the application closing date set for March 24, 2010, and it was later archived on May 23, 2010. Applicants needing help accessing the full announcement were directed to the HRSA Call Center via email at CallCenter@HRSA.GOV or by phone at 877-464-4772, with an alternate number listed as 301-998-7373. The funding announcement also provided an additional information link through the HRSA grants portal for the complete solicitation package and requirements.

In short, HRSA-10-043 was a Recovery Act funded effort to bolster the primary care and dental education pipeline by investing in the administrative units and training programs that produce primary care physicians, PAs, and dentists, including key residency and faculty development components. The program emphasized accreditation and verifiable institutional capability, provided funding without match requirements, and aimed to deliver workforce training enhancements on an accelerated ARRA timeline.
