Opportunity Summary:
Service Area Competition Additional Area (SAC AA) Cincinnati, Ohio (Funding Opportunity Number HRSA-14-115) is a discretionary grant opportunity from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA). It sits under the Health Center Program authorized by Section 330 of the Public Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. 254b), which is the federal authority behind community-based health centers that deliver primary care in medically underserved communities. The overall purpose is to expand and sustain access to comprehensive, culturally competent, high-quality primary health care for underserved and vulnerable populations by funding operational support for an announced service area in Cincinnati, Ohio.
This competition is part of HRSA's broader Health Center Program footprint, which supports roughly 1,200 health centers operating nearly 9,000 service delivery sites across every state and multiple U.S. territories. The program is designed to target high-need geographic areas and patient groups, including people who are uninsured, medically underserved, or otherwise face barriers to care. HRSA highlights the scale of impact in the program description, noting that in 2012 more than 21 million patients received services through Health Center Program-supported sites. In practical terms, the SAC AA mechanism is used when HRSA is seeking a qualified organization to take on operational responsibility for providing Section 330 health center services within a specific service area that HRSA has identified and announced.
Applicants under this FOA are seeking a grant to operate as a Health Center Program award recipient in the Cincinnati service area, with potential funding aligned to one or more of the Section 330 health center types depending on what the announced area requires. Those types include Community Health Centers (CHC, Section 330(e)), Migrant Health Centers (MHC, Section 330(g)), Health Care for the Homeless (HCH, Section 330(h)), and Public Housing Primary Care (PHPC, Section 330(i)). HRSA uses the term "health center" here as an umbrella for any of these categories, and the expectation is that the funded organization will deliver patient-directed, community-based primary care services consistent with Health Center Program standards, including an emphasis on cultural competence and quality.
The award profile provided in the listing indicates HRSA expected to make one award for this Cincinnati SAC AA opportunity, with estimated total funding of $1,323,147. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement stated for this opportunity. The grant falls under CFDA (now commonly referred to as Assistance Listing) 93.224, Consolidated Health Centers, which is the federal program listing that covers CHCs, MHCs, HCH, and PHPC projects. The funding instrument is a grant, and the activity category is Health.
Eligibility is broad in terms of organizational type, but applicants must meet all specific eligibility requirements described in the FOA (referenced as being on pages 4 and 5 of the announcement). The eligible applicant types listed include nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status (other than institutions of higher education), state and local governmental entities (including state governments, county governments, and city or township governments), public and state-controlled institutions of higher education and private institutions of higher education, independent school districts, special district governments, public housing authorities and Indian housing authorities, and Native American tribal governments (federally recognized) as well as other tribal organizations. Because SAC AA awards are meant to ensure coverage of an announced service area, eligibility is not just about entity type; it is also about demonstrating the capacity and readiness to operate a Health Center Program project that meets all required program conditions and service expectations in that specific geography.
Key dates show the opportunity was posted January 8, 2014, with an application closing date of February 19, 2014, and an archive date of April 20, 2014. While the listing includes award ceiling and floor fields as zero, that typically indicates the ceiling and floor were not specified in that particular summary field rather than implying no funding; the estimated total funding amount provides the better signal of scale for this competition.
