Description

This notice announces the opportunity for Health Center Program designated look-alikes (LALs) to apply for one-time funding under the fiscal year (FY) 2020 Health Center Program Look-Alikes: Expanding Capacity for Coronavirus Testing (LAL ECT). The purpose of this funding is to support designated LALs in preventing, preparing for, and responding to coronavirus disease (COVID-19). Specifically, funds are to be used for necessary expenses to purchase, administer, and expand capacity for testing to monitor and suppress COVID-19. This funding is appropriated by the Paycheck Protection Program and Health Care Enhancement Act, P.L. 116-139. ECT funding is available to currently designated Health Center Program LALs, which, as set forth above, are health centers that: (1) are designated by HRSA as providing comprehensive primary health care services in compliance with all Health Center Program requirements, but (2) do not receive Health Center Program grant funding. Eligible applicants must be designated as LALs by the date of NOFO release. See the LAL ECT technical assistance webpage for a list of currently designated LALs.
