| Purpose |
The purpose of the Network Planning Grant Program is to (1) achieve efficiencies, (2) expand access to, coordinate and improve the quality of essential health care services, and (3) strengthen the rural health care system as a whole.
The Network Planning Grant Program supports one year of planning activities that assist rural entities in the development of an integrated health care network if the proposed participants in the network do not have a history of collaborative efforts and a 3-year grant would be inappropriate. |
| Eligibility |
The applicant organization must be a rural, non-profit or public entity that represents a consortium/network of three or more health related entities that need assistance to plan, organize and develop a health care network. Faith-based and community-based organizations as well as Tribal Organizations are also eligible to apply for these funds. For-profit organizations are not eligible to be the lead applicant but can participate in the network. Please refer to program guidance for additional information related to program eligibility.
