Scholarship Requirements

To receive a grant, the State must

agree that it will award a grant to a

community organization for

scholarships only if:

1. The individual who is to receive

the scholarship under a contract is a

resident of a federally designated HPSA

in which the community organization is

located and will provide primary health

care services for:

a. A number of years equal to the

number of years for which the

scholarship is provided, or for a period

of 2 years, whichever period is greater;

or

b. Such greater period of time as the

individual and the community

organization may agree.

2. The individual agrees, while

enrolled in a health professions school,

to maintain an acceptable level of

academic standing (as determined by

the school) at the school as a full-time

student in accordance with regulation

issued by the Secretary pursuant to

section 338A(f)(1)(B)(iii) of the PHS Act;

3. The individual and the community

organization agree that the scholarship:

a. Will be expended only for tuition

expenses, other reasonable educational

expenses, reasonable living expenses

incurred while in attendance at the

school, and/or payment to the

individual of a monthly stipend of not

more than the amount authorized for

NHSC scholarship recipients under

Section 338A(g)(1)(B) of the PHS Act;

and

b. Will not, for any year of such

attendance for which the scholarship is

provided, be in an amount exceeding

the total amount required for the year

for the purposes indicated in paragraph

(a) above.

4. The individual agrees to meet the

educational and certification or

licensure requirements necessary to

become a primary care physician,

certified nurse practitioner, certified

nurse midwife, or physician assistant in

the State in which the individual is to

practice under the contract; and,

5. The individual agrees that, in

providing primary health care pursuant

to the scholarship, he/she:

a. Will not, in the case of an

individual seeking care, discriminate on

the basis of the ability of the individual

to pay for such care or on the basis that

payment for such care will be made

pursuant to the programs established in

Titles XVIII (Medicare) or XIX

(Medicaid) of the Social Security Act;

and,

b. Will accept assignment under

section 1842(b)(3)(B)(ii) of the Social

Security Act for all services for which

payment may be made under Part B of

Title XVIII, and will enter into an

appropriate agreement with the State

agency that administers the State plan

for medical assistance under Title XIX

to provide service to individuals

entitled to medical assistance under the

plan.

Evaluation Criteria

For new and competing continuation

grants the following criteria will be used

to evaluate applications: (a) The

magnitude and extent of the need for the

grant to provide primary health care, as

described in the proposal; (b) The extent

to which the applicant’s and

community’s recruitment plans are

consistent with the State’s plans for

meeting the needs of the community’s

primary care system; (c) The adequacy

of the methodology for selecting

community organizations, and for

monitoring and evaluating the

community organization’s compliance

with the terms and conditions of the

grant; (d) The degree of documented

community commitment to and

involvement with the grant; (e) The

appropriateness of the proposed plan to

administer and manage the grant; and (f)

The soundness of the budget and the

budget justification for assuring

effective utilization of grant funds. For

competing continuation applications,

evaluation will also be made of program

outcomes and the degree to which

stated goals and objectives were

achieved.

Other Grant Information

The CSP is subject to the provisions

of Executive Order 12372, as

implemented by 45 CFR part 100, which

allows States the option of setting up a

system for reviewing applications from

within their States for assistance under

certain Federal programs. The

application package for this program

will include a list of States with review

systems and the single point of contact

(SPOC) in each State for the review.

Applicants (other than federallyrecognized Indian tribal governments)

should contact their State SPOCs as

early as possible to alert them to the

prospective applications and receive

any necessary instructions on the State

process. For proposed projects serving

more than one State, the applicant is

advised to contact the SPOC of each

affected State. The due date for State

process recommendations is 60 days

after the application deadline. The

BPHC does not guarantee that it will

accommodate or explain its response to

State process recommendations received

after that date.

Grants will be administered in

accordance with HHS regulations in 45

CFR part 92. The OMB Catalog of

Federal Domestic Assistance number for

this program is 93.931.
