AHCCCS issues this sixth public solicitation under the Arizona Rural Health Transformation Program (RHTP): Request for Grant Applications (RFGA) YH-27-0025, to support Adopt Shared Services Consortiums. This RFGA funds development and implementation of shared service models among rural and Tribal healthcare providers across rural Arizona. Projects may feature shared staffing models (joint employment, traveling clinicians, locum tenens), shared training/education programs, joint IT/data infrastructure, centralized billing/coding, common scheduling, co-located service hubs, supply chain cooperatives, shared compliance functions, and regional service networks, aiming to reduce operational costs, eliminate duplication, and enhance financial and clinical capacity. Three funding tiers support projects from two organizations up to regional hub models: Tier 1 ($10,000–$95,000) is for small-scale, single-function arrangements (2–3 orgs); Tier 2 ($95,001–$500,000) supports multi-function projects with formal governance (4–6 orgs); Tier 3 ($500,001–$1,500,000) is for comprehensive regional hubs (7+ orgs/networks). Administrative and capital expenditure caps apply—grantee administrative costs are capped at 7%; provider payments at 15%; capital/infrastructure at 20%; EMR/EHR replacements at 5%. Funded projects must create new or expanded shared-service activities, not supplant or duplicate existing service or funding streams. All costs must be obligated within the budget period and liquidated per federal deadlines. Tribal partnerships are encouraged and prioritized and eligible for scoring bonuses in review.
Eligible applicants are limited to small rural clinics, Tribal health programs and 638 facilities, community-based organizations (including providers) serving rural populations, rural EMS agencies and fire departments, school-based health centers in rural areas, Rural Health Clinics (RHCs), Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs), small Critical Access Hospitals, county health departments, and rural provider consortiums. Tribal facilities and inter-Tribal consortiums may apply to any tier for which they qualify. Eligibility extends only to entities serving HRSA-designated rural service areas in Arizona (see https://data.hrsa.gov/topics/rural-health/rural-health-eligibility
