Opportunity Summary:
The Service Area Competition Additional Areas funding opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number HRSA-11-178) is a discretionary grant program from the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) designed to expand access to comprehensive primary health care in an underserved community. In this specific announcement, HRSA is seeking one grantee to provide health center services for a single, clearly defined service area: Riverton, Wyoming. The goal is to fund an organization capable of delivering the full scope of primary care and related enabling services expected of federally supported health centers to the population and geography identified by HRSA as needing additional access.
This competition is tied to HRSA's Consolidated Health Centers program (CFDA 93.224), which supports community health centers, migrant health centers, health care for the homeless, and public housing primary care models. While the notice is framed as a service area competition, the key practical point is that applicants are competing to become the designated provider for this one newly announced additional area. HRSA expects to make exactly one award under this announcement, meaning the application process is competitive and the selected applicant will be responsible for covering the identified service area and/or target population described in Appendix D of the full funding opportunity announcement.
The total funding amount available is $1,072,582, and both the award ceiling and floor are listed as $1,072,582, indicating HRSA anticipated a single fixed-size award rather than a range of possible award amounts. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants are not required to contribute a specified non-federal share as a condition of receiving the grant. The funding instrument is a grant, and the activity category is health, reflecting direct support for service delivery rather than, for example, research or infrastructure-only projects.
Eligible applicants include public entities and nonprofit private entities, with HRSA explicitly including tribal organizations, faith-based organizations, and community-based organizations among those that may apply. The eligibility language also emphasizes that organizations must propose to serve the same service area and population identified by HRSA for this opportunity. Applicants may be new organizations or existing HRSA grantees, but they must demonstrate the ability to serve the entire designated service area and/or population. HRSA also notes that an applicant must have at least one health care facility physically located in the service area, or have a plan to establish a facility in the service area within 120 days of the grant award. In addition, HRSA allows consortium-based approaches, where an organization representing a partnership of health centers can apply if, collectively, the consortium can serve the entire service area and/or population.
Key dates show that the opportunity was posted and created on April 11, 2011, with an application closing deadline of May 19, 2011. The opportunity was later archived on July 18, 2011, which simply reflects that it is no longer open and is kept for recordkeeping and reference. For applicants who needed assistance accessing the full announcement at the time, HRSA provided support through its call center and email (CallCenter@HRSA.GOV), along with phone contact options.
In short, HRSA-11-178 was a one-award, fixed-amount grant competition intended to select a single organization to deliver comprehensive, health-center-style primary care services in Riverton, Wyoming, with eligibility focused on public or nonprofit entities that could quickly establish or already operated a care delivery site in the service area and could credibly serve the full designated community need.
