Service Area Competition

The Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) is accepting applications for the fiscal year (FY) 2024 Service Area Competition (SAC) under the Health Center Program. The purpose of this program is to improve the health of the Nation’s underserved communities and populations by assuring continued access to comprehensive, culturally competent, high-quality primary health care services. The 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. Key aspects of the job include: • Providing comprehensive primary health care services to defined service areas and patient populations already being served by the Health Center Program. • Demonstrating readiness to meet Health Center Program requirements, including ensuring the availability and accessibility of primary health care services to all individuals in the service area and target population, regardless of ability to pay. • Collaborating and coordinating delivery systems for the provision of health care to the underserved. • Submitting a Uniform Data System (UDS) report annually to ensure compliance with legislative and regulatory requirements, improve health center performance and operations, and report overall program accomplishments.
