BILLING CODE 4150–36–P
The mission of the Office of Rural
Health Policy (ORHP) is to sustain and
improve access to quality care services
for rural communities. In its authorizing
language (Sec. 711 of the Social Security
Act [42 U.S.C. 912]), Congress charged
ORHP with administering grants,
cooperative agreements, and contracts to
provide technical assistance and other
activities as necessary to support
activities related to improving health
care in rural areas.
In accordance with the Public Health
Service Act, section 338J, 42 U.S.C.
254r, HRSA proposes to revise the State
Offices of Rural Health Grant Program—
Guidance and Forms for the
Application. The guidance is used
annually by 50 States in writing
applications for grants under the State
Offices of Rural Health Grant Program
(SORH) and in preparing the required
report.
ORHP seeks to expand the
information gathered from grantees on
their efforts to provide technical
assistance to clients within their State.
SORH grantees would be required to
submit a Technical Assistance Report
that includes: (1) The total number of
technical assistance encounters
provided directly by the grantee; and,
(2) the total number of clients that
received direct technical assistance from
the grantee. Submission of the
Technical Assistance Report would be
done via e-mail to ORHP no later than
30 days after the end of each twelvemonth budget period.
The estimated average annual burden
is as follows:
