About this opportunity
The Rural Veterans Health Access Program is a federal grant opportunity from the Department of Health and Human Services Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) that aims to improve healthcare access and coordination for veterans living in rural areas. The program will provide up to three cooperative agreement awards of $200,000 per year for a three-year period, totaling $600,000 in available funding. Eligible applicants are limited to states that are current recipients of the Medicare Rural Hospital Flexibility Program under HRSA-24-002. Key requirements include developing regional networks to provide benefits counseling, assist veterans with VA health system enrollment, help rural providers bill for veteran services, and improve care coordination between VA and community providers. Special consideration will be given to applications from states where rural veterans make up 25% or more of the state's veteran population. The application deadline is February 5, 2025 by 11:59 PM ET.
The program aims to fund projects in rural areas and states with significant rural veteran populations. Recipients must partner with one of five Veterans Rural Health Resource Centers (VRHRCs) and submit quarterly progress reports and annual reports to HRSA.
