Opportunity Summary:
The Service Area Competitions (SAC) grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number HRSA-11-010) is a discretionary grant program run by the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) to ensure that comprehensive primary health care services continue in areas or for populations that are considered underserved. The basic idea is that when HRSA announces a specific service area or target population for competition (as listed in the guidance appendices and/or on Grants.gov), organizations can apply to take over or continue delivering health center services for that defined community. This competition process is designed to keep care available and stable for patients, while allowing HRSA to select the organization best positioned to meet local needs and federal program requirements.
Funding is provided under CFDA 93.224, Consolidated Health Centers, which covers Community Health Centers, Migrant Health Centers, Health Care for the Homeless, and Public Housing Primary Care. The opportunity anticipated 48 awards, with an estimated total funding amount of $122,686,000. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning applicants are not required to contribute non-federal matching funds as a condition of receiving the award (though applicants typically still need to show sound budgeting and operational capacity). The opportunity was posted August 25, 2010, with an application deadline of October 28, 2010, and it was later archived December 26, 2010.
Eligible applicants include public entities and nonprofit private entities, and HRSA explicitly notes that tribal, faith-based, and community-based organizations may apply. Eligibility is tied closely to the specific service areas and/or populations HRSA has announced for competition (referenced as Appendix D and Appendix E in the source text). Applicants may include existing grantees whose project periods are ending within the stated window (project period ending on or after October 31, 2010 and before October 1, 2011), as well as new organizations that can take responsibility for serving the entire announced service area and/or population. HRSA also allows for consortium arrangements, where a partnership of health centers applies together and demonstrates that, as a group, they can fully serve the announced area/population.
A key part of this competition is continuity and completeness of service. Competing organizations are required to commit to serving the entire announced service area and the entire population currently being served; applications cannot propose to serve only a subset of the existing patient population. Applicants must also provide the same or comparable comprehensive primary health care services that are presently being delivered, reflecting HRSA’s expectation that patients should not lose access, scope of services, or essential supports during a change in awardee. In addition, applicants must plan to use the federal funds to serve the patients currently served by the existing grantee, and they must request an equal or lesser amount of federal funding than what the current grantee receives, including any special population funding streams (such as migrant health, homelessness, and public housing-related components). Taken together, these conditions show that SAC is not meant to fund expansion beyond the competed footprint with increased federal dollars; it is mainly intended to compete stewardship of an established federal investment for a specific community.
For applicants seeking more details, HRSA provided an online announcement link and support through the HRSA Call Center for anyone who had trouble accessing the full posting electronically. The listed contact route included the CallCenter@HRSA.GOV email and a toll-free phone option (877-Go4-HRSA / 877-464-4772).
