responsibilities due to financial
difficulties as well as management and
legal concerns. TPCA has been a HRSA
funded Primary Care Association since
1985 and is a well established
organization with sound fiscal and
grants management operations.
In the effort to preserve the
opportunity to advance information
technology resources of the Tennessee’s
medically underserved communities,
TPCA has demonstrated the capacity to
fulfill the expectations of the original
grant award and has collaborated with
CHN’s Board of Directors to plan for a
smooth transition of the grant.
The transfer of these funds will
ensure full implementation of the grant
which will greatly advance the State of
Tennessee’s continuity of care and have
a positive impact on population health.
It will also help the participating health
centers to meet requirements for
Meaningful Use and Patient Centered
Medical Home programs by the Centers
for Medicare and Medicaid Services
(CMS), the National Committee for
Quality Assurance (NCQA) and/or the
Joint Commission.
The implementation of a Health
Center Controlled Network would assist
with the advancement and effective use
of Health Information Technology.
These advancements will result in
measurable improvements in patient
outcomes and reductions of health
disparities for underserved communities
in the State of Tennessee. As a result, in
order to ensure a timely implementation
of a Health Center Controlled Network
in the State of Tennessee as originally
awarded, this replacement award will
not be competed.
