Primary Care Officer Grant Support

The Virginia Department of Health’s Primary Care Office seeks a contractor to assist with the upcoming Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) update of Health Professional Shortage Areas (HPSAs). The work involves extensive use of the federal Shortage Designation Management System (SDMS) to edit contiguous areas and census tract boundaries, update and attest provider location data, and provide technical assistance to Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) and National Health Service Corps (NHSC) site applicants. This effort supports the September 2025 national update cycle and requires subject‑matter expertise in health‑care data management and grant administration. • Update HPSA boundaries using SDMS to reflect changes from the 2020 Decennial Census. • Verify, clean, and attest provider location data for accuracy and compliance. • Offer technical assistance to FQHCs during their concurrent HPSA updates. • Support NHSC site application processes with guidance and documentation. • Deliver ongoing grant‑support services to the Virginia Primary Care Office throughout the project period.
