DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES
Health Resources and Services Administration
Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program, Part C Early Intervention Services
Grant Under the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program
AGENCY: Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), HHS.
ACTION: Notice of Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program Part C Early Intervention
Services One-Time Noncompetitive Award to Ensure Continued HIV Primary
Medical Care.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: To prevent a lapse in comprehensive primary care services for
persons living with HIV/AIDS, HRSA will provide a one-time
noncompetitive Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program Part C funds award to the
Bartz-Altadonna Community Health Center (BACHC), Lancaster, California.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The amount of the award to ensure ongoing
HIV medical services is $402,187.
Authority: Section 2651 of the Public Health Service (PHS) Act,
42 U.S.C. 300ff-51.
CFDA Number: 93.918.
Project period: The period of support for this award is 15 months,
explained below in further detail.
Justification for the Exception to Competition: The Catalyst
Foundation, Lancaster, California (Grant Number: H76HA00784) announced
the relinquishment of their Part C grant on February 14, 2013. To
prevent a lapse in HIV medical care, grant funds of $402,187 are to be
awarded to BACHC to provide interim HIV medical care. BACHC is a
Federally Qualified Health Center under section 330 of the PHS Act
(H80CS22686), and the sub-grantee to Catalyst that is already providing
the clinical care for the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program Part C clients.
The Catalyst Foundation has identified BACHC as a successor for the
Part C grant. The $402,187 represents a proportional share of the last
award to the Catalyst Foundation to cover 15 months of HIV primary
medical care services until the service area is competed by July 1,
2014.
