outpatient mental health and substance
abuse treatment, specialty and
subspecialty care, referrals for health
and support services and adherence
monitoring/education services in order
to ensure continuity of critical HIV
medical care and treatment services,

Justification for the Exception to
Competition
Critical funding for HIV medical care
and treatment services to clients in the
Delta area of Mississippi will be
continued through a non-competitive
one-time program expansion
supplement award to the Tutwiler
Clinic, because it has the fiscal and
administrative infrastructure to
administer the Part C Grant. The
Tutwiler Clinic will contract with the
Northwest Mississippi Regional Medical
Center, Clarksdale, Mississippi, which
will be taking over the clinic, providers,
and staff of Deporres Delta Ministries,
and continue providing medical and
HIV care in Marks, Mississippi. The
Northwest Mississippi Regional Medical
Center is the only available provider of
quality HIV services, and it has the
resources the Tutwiler Clinic needs in
order to provide quality HIV care. This
is a temporary replacement award, as
the previous grant recipient serving this
population notified the Health
Resources and Services Administration
(HRSA) that it could not continue
providing services. HRSA’s HIV/AIDS
Bureau identified the Tutwiler Clinic as
the best qualified entity for this
temporary grant. The Tutwiler Clinic,
contracting with the Northwest
Mississippi Regional Medical Center,
can ensure comprehensive services are
provided including primary medical
care including antiretroviral therapies,
prevention education and medication
adherence teaching, mental health
referrals, substance abuse, and dental
services, as well as on-site medical HIV
case management services. The
additional funding will provide support
to retain the targeted population in care,
and the Tutwiler Clinic, with the
Northwest Mississippi Regional Medical
Center, will be able to provide critical
services, with the least amount of
disruption to the service population
while the service area is re-competed.
This non-competitive one-time
program expansion supplement award
will cover the time period from July 1,
2011 through December 31, 2011. This
service area will be included in the
upcoming competition for the Part C
HIV Early Intervention Services for
project periods starting January 1, 2012.
