Opportunity Summary:
The Service Area Competitions (SAC) grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number HRSA 10-014) is a discretionary grant program run by the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) to ensure that underserved communities continue to receive comprehensive primary health care services. In practical terms, SAC is a competitive process used when HRSA has identified specific service areas or patient populations, listed through an official competitive announcement (referenced in Appendix F of the program guidance and/or posted through Grants.gov), where an existing federally supported health center project is up for competition. The goal is continuity and accountability: HRSA uses competition to select the organization best positioned to deliver high-quality, comprehensive primary care to the full community or population currently being served.
This opportunity falls under CFDA 93.224, Consolidated Health Centers, which covers community health centers as well as health services targeted to special populations such as migrant farmworkers, people experiencing homelessness, and residents of public housing. The funding instrument is a grant, and the activity category is health. The announcement projected 51 awards with an estimated total funding amount of $5,400,000. A cost-sharing or matching requirement applies, meaning applicants should expect to demonstrate some level of non-federal support or resources consistent with the program requirements described in the full application materials.
Eligibility is limited and highly specific because SAC is tied to particular locations and populations already defined by HRSA. Applicants must be public entities or nonprofit private entities. HRSA explicitly includes tribal organizations, faith-based organizations, and community-based organizations as potentially eligible, so long as they meet the requirements tied to the announced service area and population. The competition is not an open-ended request to start a new clinic anywhere; instead, applicants must propose to serve the same service area(s) and/or population(s) currently served by the existing grantee(s) identified in the application materials and Appendix F.
Both current/previous grantees and new organizations may apply, but new applicants must demonstrate the ability to take responsibility for the entire announced service area and/or the entire identified population. HRSA also allows a consortium approach, where an organization representing a partnership of health centers can apply if, together, they can fully serve the required area and population. In all cases, competitors must meet several core conditions: they must (a) provide services across the entire announced service area, (b) serve the entire population currently being served rather than only a subset, (c) provide the same or comparable comprehensive primary health care services that patients are already receiving, (d) use federal funding to continue serving the patients currently served by the existing grantee, and (e) request an equal or lesser amount of federal funding than what the current grantee receives, including any dedicated funding associated with special population programs (migrant, homeless, and public housing). These requirements are designed to prevent service disruptions, avoid partial coverage proposals that leave patients behind, and keep funding requests aligned with established federal support levels.
Key dates in the posting indicate the opportunity was posted May 8, 2009, with an original and current closing date of September 17, 2009, and an archive date of November 15, 2009 (meaning it is no longer active as posted). The full announcement and related materials were made available through HRSA and Grants.gov, with an additional information link provided in the source. For access issues or applicant support, HRSA directed users to contact the HRSA Call Center by email (CallCenter@HRSA.GOV) or by phone (877-464-4772, and a TTY line at 301-998-7373).
Service Area Competitions (SAC) Grant (HRSA 10-014) - FAQs
What is the Service Area Competitions (SAC) grant opportunity?
SAC (Funding Opportunity Number HRSA 10-014) is a discretionary grant program run by the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA). It is used to ensure underserved communities continue receiving comprehensive primary health care services when an existing federally supported health center project is placed into competition for a specific service area or patient population.
Why does HRSA run a competition for a service area that already has a health center?
HRSA uses SAC as a continuity and accountability tool. When a defined service area or patient population is announced for competition, HRSA selects the organization best positioned to deliver high-quality, comprehensive primary care to the full community or population currently being served, while avoiding service disruptions.
Is SAC an open opportunity to start a new clinic anywhere?
No. SAC is not an open-ended opportunity to propose a new clinic in any location. Applicants must propose to serve the same announced service area(s) and/or the same identified population(s) currently served by the existing grantee(s) named in the application materials and referenced announcements (including Appendix F and/or postings through Grants.gov).

Applicants must provide services across the entire announced service area. Proposals that cover only part of the service area do not meet the stated SAC conditions.
