Opportunity Information: Apply for HRSA 19 091

Service Area Competition-Additional Areas (SAC-AA) - Chicago, IL and Toledo, OH (HRSA-19-091) is a discretionary grant opportunity from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) under CFDA 93.224. It is part of HRSA's Health Center Program and is designed to fund community-based organizations that deliver primary health care in medically underserved communities. The focus of this specific SAC-AA announcement is on supporting service delivery in the additional service areas identified for Chicago, Illinois and Toledo, Ohio, with the overall goal of maintaining and strengthening access to affordable, high-quality primary care for the populations already served through the Health Center Program.

The central purpose of the SAC-AA notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) is continuity of care. HRSA uses SAC-AA competitions to ensure that when there is a need to expand or reinforce coverage in a defined geographic or service area, qualified organizations can apply for operational funding to provide comprehensive primary health care services. In practical terms, applicants are competing to become (or remain) the HRSA-supported health center provider for the announced service area(s), with an emphasis on meeting the needs of vulnerable and underserved groups and delivering patient-directed, community-responsive care.

The opportunity is aimed at public and private nonprofit entities that are community-based and patient-directed, consistent with the Health Center Program model. While the eligibility line item is listed broadly as "Others," the NOFO indicates that applicants must meet the SAC-AA eligibility requirements described in the full announcement, which typically align with Health Center Program requirements (for example, the ability to operate as a compliant health center organization serving a defined service area and target population). Within this program, the term "health center" is used broadly to include organizations funded under section 330 of the Public Health Service Act, including 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)). This matters because it clarifies that HRSA is not limiting the concept of a health center to just one subtype; rather, multiple section 330 models may be relevant depending on the community needs and the applicant's scope.

Applicants are expected to propose the delivery of primary health care services with operational support from HRSA, meaning the funding is intended to help run and sustain ongoing health center operations in the designated service area rather than support a one-time activity. The NOFO also signals that HRSA will use defined review criteria and awarding factors to evaluate applications, which typically emphasizes things like the applicant's capacity to deliver required services, governance and patient engagement consistent with the program's patient-directed approach, quality improvement and performance, financial and administrative capability, and the ability to meet service area needs. The competition structure implies that HRSA intends to select providers that can demonstrate both immediate readiness and long-term stability in serving these communities.

Key administrative details include a creation date of June 18, 2018, and an original application closing date of August 17, 2018. HRSA anticipated making two awards, which aligns with the two locations highlighted in the title (Chicago and Toledo), although the precise distribution would depend on how HRSA defined the service areas and structured the competition. The listed award ceiling is shown as 0, which generally indicates that the ceiling was not specified in the summarized dataset and that applicants would need to consult the full NOFO for funding ranges, expected budgets, and any service area-specific funding amounts.

Overall, this SAC-AA opportunity is best understood as HRSA's mechanism for ensuring that designated areas in Chicago, IL and Toledo, OH continue to have a federally supported health center presence capable of delivering accessible, affordable primary care to medically underserved populations, using the established Health Center Program framework and section 330 authorities.
