Project Grant P0654295

The Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) awarded a $150,000 Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program Part C Capacity Development Project Grant (CFDA 93.145) to Sun River Health, Inc. (d/b/a Hudson River Healthcare) to implement an infrastructure development project focused on upgrading the organization's telemedicine security and capacity.

Specifically, the grant funding will be used to purchase two new firewall system CPU/hardware units to improve the availability and redundancy of Sun River Health's telemedicine services. This upgrade will enhance the organization's ability to protect against malicious cyber threats and expand the data processing capacity to support increased telemedicine utilization. The project aims to address critical gaps in HIV care and treatment access for the over 2,500 people living with HIV served by Sun River Health's 16 Part C-funded program sites across the Hudson Valley, New York City, and Long Island regions. By improving telemedicine security and capacity, the project is expected to enhance patient experience and health outcomes for this underserved population.
