Opportunity Summary:
The Service Area Competition (SAC) funding opportunity (HRSA-14-022) is a discretionary grant program from the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) that supports health centers serving underserved communities and vulnerable populations. The core purpose is to maintain and strengthen access to comprehensive, culturally competent, high-quality primary health care in specific geographic or population-based service areas that HRSA has announced as being up for competition. In practical terms, SAC is a way for HRSA to fund ongoing operational support for a health center to deliver required primary care and related services in a defined service area under the federal Health Center Program authorized by section 330 of the Public Health Service (PHS) Act, as amended.
This FOA invites applications from organizations seeking to operate as a section 330 health center in the announced service area, and it covers the major Health Center Program categories: 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)). The announcement uses the term "health center" broadly to include any of these section 330-supported models. Applicants are expected to propose how they will provide comprehensive primary care services and meet Health Center Program expectations, including quality, access, and cultural competence for the target population.
The FOA lays out the key ground rules for competing, including eligibility requirements, the criteria reviewers use to evaluate applications, and additional awarding factors HRSA may consider. While the summary data does not list the detailed requirements, it makes clear that applicants must meet all eligibility requirements described in the FOA (pages 4 and 5). The program is specifically aimed at operational support for the service area, meaning funds are intended to run and sustain health center operations rather than being a one-time project-only award.
From an administrative standpoint, the opportunity is identified as CFDA 93.224 (Consolidated Health Centers), with an expected 26 awards. The opportunity was posted June 13, 2013, with a closing date of July 31, 2013, and it was archived September 29, 2013. The public listing shows award floor and ceiling as 0, which typically indicates that specific funding amounts are defined in the full FOA or depend on the service area and applicant circumstances rather than being summarized in the listing.
Eligible applicants are broad and include various public and private entities, such as state, county, and city or township governments; special district governments; independent school districts; public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities; nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status (other than institutions of higher education); private institutions of higher education; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education; Native American tribal governments (federally recognized); and other Native American tribal organizations (not federally recognized). The listing also notes that there are additional clarifications in the FOA itself, and eligibility hinges on meeting the full set of requirements specified in that document.
For organizations interested in the original announcement details, HRSA provided an online link to the FOA, and assistance was available through the HRSA Call Center (877-464-4772) or by email at CallCenter@HRSA.GOV for applicants who had difficulty accessing the full materials electronically.
