Description

This notice announces the opportunity to apply for funding under the Health Center Program's Service Area Competition (SAC). The Health Center Program supports domestic public or private, nonprofit community-based and patient-directed organizations that provide primary health care services to the Nation's medically underserved populations. The purpose of the SAC notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) is to ensure continued access to comprehensive, culturally competent, high-quality primary health care services for communities and populations currently served by the Health Center Program
Background
The Health Center Program is authorized by section 330 of the Public Health Service (PHS) Act, as amended (42 U.S.C. ยง 254b). Through the SAC, organizations compete for Health Center Program operational support to provide comprehensive primary health care services to defined service areas and patient populations already being served by the Health Center Program.

Grant Details
The purpose of the SAC notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) is to ensure continued access to comprehensive, culturally competent, high-quality primary health care services for communities and populations currently served by the Health Center Program. The application must document an understanding of the need for primary health care services in the service area and propose a comprehensive plan that demonstrates compliance with the Health Center Program requirements. The plan must ensure the availability and accessibility of primary health care services to all individuals in the service area and target population, regardless of ability to pay.

Eligibility Requirements
Domestic public or private, nonprofit entities, including Tribes and tribal, faith-based, or community-based organizations are eligible. Applicants must propose to operate a health center that makes all required primary health care services available and accessible in the service area, either directly or through established arrangements, without regard for ability to pay.

Period of Performance
The period of performance is from March 1, 2024, through February 28, 2027 (up to 3 years). Funding beyond the first year is subject to the availability of appropriated funds for the Health Center Program in subsequent fiscal years, satisfactory progress, and a decision that continued funding is in the best interest of the Federal Government.

Grant Value
Approximately $261,641,270 is estimated to be available annually to fund up to 81 recipients. The actual amount available will not be determined until enactment of the final FY 2024 federal appropriation.
