Opportunity Summary:

The Service Area Competition Additional Areas (Boydton, VA) funding opportunity (HRSA-12-168) is a discretionary grant from the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) designed to support the delivery of comprehensive, community-based primary health care in an underserved location. This particular announcement is limited to a single service area: Boydton, Virginia, and it falls under CFDA 93.224, Consolidated Health Centers (often referred to as the Health Center Program under section 330). The basic purpose is to ensure that residents in the announced area have access to a full range of primary and preventive health services, along with enabling services, delivered either directly by the applicant or through formal, established arrangements, and provided without regard to a patient’s ability to pay.

Funding for this competition was estimated at $482,117 total, with HRSA expecting to make one award. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement stated for applicants, which means the federal award does not require an applicant to contribute a specified non-federal match as a condition of eligibility. The opportunity was posted on December 20, 2011, with an application deadline of February 1, 2012 (the original and current closing date were the same), and it was later archived on April 1, 2012. Because this is a competitive “service area competition” announcement, applicants are effectively competing to be the entity responsible for operating a health center project that serves the announced geography/population under the Health Center Program rules.

Eligible applicants include public and nonprofit private entities. The eligibility list is broad and includes state governments, county governments, city or township governments, special district governments, federally recognized tribal governments, and nonprofits with IRS 501(c)(3) status (other than institutions of higher education). HRSA also notes that eligibility is “unrestricted” within those categories, subject to any clarifications contained in the full FOA text. Beyond organizational type, HRSA sets several strict eligibility conditions. Applicants must propose to serve the specific service area and associated population identified for Boydton in the FOA’s Table 6, and the competition may involve different situations: a current Health Center Program grantee seeking to continue service as its project period ends within the specified window; a new organization not currently funded under the Health Center Program proposing to serve the entire announced service area; or an existing Health Center Program grantee proposing to add the entire announced service area in addition to its current one.

The FOA emphasizes that applications must be responsive to all eligibility requirements or they will be deemed non-responsive and not reviewed for funding. Key requirements include submitting only one application under a single SAC announcement number, and requesting section 330 funds specifically to support operation of a health center that delivers required comprehensive services. HRSA makes clear that an applicant cannot propose a narrow or single-service project (for example, only dental, only behavioral health, or only prenatal care). The project must provide comprehensive primary and preventive care, plus enabling and additional services as required under the program, either on-site or through formal referral/contractual arrangements.

Another central expectation is broad access. The applicant must propose to make services available to all individuals in the service area or target population and cannot be designed to exclusively serve only one age group or only one disease/condition category. If an applicant targets a subpopulation within the service area (examples given include homeless children, LGBTQ individuals, or students in schools), the proposal must still ensure that others in need who seek care at the site(s) can access services. In addition, the federal funding request must not exceed the annual section 330 funding cap established for the announced Boydton service area, and the total application must comply with HRSA’s stated 150-page printed application limit (with details on what counts toward that limit provided in the FOA tables).

For assistance, HRSA directs applicants who have trouble accessing the full announcement electronically to contact the HRSA Call Center by phone at 877-464-4772 (877-Go4-HRSA) or by email at CallCenter@HRSA.GOV. The full announcement and related materials were made available through HRSA’s grants site and Grants.gov, with an additional information link provided in the posting.
