Opportunity Summary:
The Service Area Competition - Additional Area (SAC AA) - Cheyenne, WY funding opportunity (HRSA-15-147) was a discretionary grant announcement from the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) designed to expand access to primary health care in an identified service area by supporting the operation of a HRSA-funded health center. The core purpose of the program is to improve health outcomes for underserved communities and vulnerable populations by ensuring access to comprehensive, culturally competent, high-quality primary care. This opportunity sits within the broader Health Center Program authorized under section 330 of the Public Health Service Act and is meant to fund organizations that can deliver patient-directed, community-based care to people who are medically underserved, uninsured, or otherwise face barriers to health services.
This particular SAC AA announcement focused on adding coverage in the Cheyenne, Wyoming service area by selecting an eligible organization to operate as the section 330-funded provider for that area. Applicants could propose to serve the community under one or more of the Health Center Program categories, depending on the population needs and the applicant's plan: Community Health Center (CHC, section 330(e)), Migrant Health Center (MHC, section 330(g)), Health Care for the Homeless (HCH, section 330(h)), and/or Public Housing Primary Care (PHPC, section 330(i)). In practical terms, the grant was intended to provide operational support to run a health center site or network of sites that would deliver comprehensive primary care and enabling services aligned with HRSA health center requirements, with an emphasis on culturally competent care and access for underserved patients.
The funding profile indicates HRSA expected to make one award for this specific service area competition. The estimated total funding available for the award was $374,924, listed under CFDA 93.224 (Consolidated Health Centers), and the opportunity did not require cost sharing or matching. While the notice lists an award ceiling and floor as zero, that typically reflects how the listing was entered in the system rather than meaning no money would be awarded, since the announcement separately provides an estimated total funding amount and an expected award count.
Eligibility was restricted and compliance-driven. The opportunity states that applicants had to meet all stated eligibility requirements and that any application failing to demonstrate full compliance would be considered non-responsive and would not be reviewed for funding. The public listing summarizes eligible applicants as "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)," which is consistent with HRSA health center competitions where eligibility often depends on being a public or private nonprofit organization capable of meeting section 330 requirements, including governance and service obligations, rather than fitting into a simple category like state government or higher education. The FOA also emphasized that it would spell out review criteria and awarding factors, meaning proposals would be scored not only on eligibility but also on the quality and feasibility of the operational plan to serve the announced area and target populations.
Timing and administrative details are clear: the opportunity was posted March 18, 2015, with an application deadline of May 19, 2015, and it was later archived July 18, 2015. The funding instrument was a grant, the activity category was health, and the administering agency was HRSA within the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. For applicant support, HRSA provided contact points through the HRSA Grants Application Center in Gaithersburg, Maryland, including an email address (bphcsac@hrsa.gov) and a program contact (Beth Hartmayer at 301-594-4300), which would have been used for questions about accessing the full announcement or clarifying application requirements.
Overall, this SAC AA opportunity functioned as a competitive selection process to identify one organization to deliver HRSA Health Center Program services in the Cheyenne service area, using federal operational grant support to increase access to primary care for medically underserved and vulnerable residents, consistent with the national footprint and mission of the Health Center Program (which at the time supported roughly 1,300 health centers operating more than 9,000 sites and serving over 21 million patients in 2013).
