About this program
The Department of Health and Human Services Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services funds practice transformation networks under CFDA 93.638, with the most recent grant award issued January 1, 2019. This program is inactive for new applications; no grant opportunities have been posted since March 2019, and no awards have been disbursed in the past seven years.
The program funded collaborative networks of clinicians and practices designed to test large-scale transformation approaches under the Transforming Clinical Practice Initiative (TCPI). Award recipients led clinical practices through structured transformation phases toward participation in advanced payment and care delivery models. The Northern New England Practice Transformation Network received $3 million in the final 2019 award; earlier cohorts in 2015 included the National Rural Accountable Care Consortium, which received $31.3 million to prepare rural providers for advanced payment participation.
The program distributed $516.6 million in combined federal funding across 33 total awards, with 88 percent structured as Project Grants and 12 percent as Cooperative Agreements. Funding was heavily concentrated in the initial cohort disbursed September 29, 2015, when CMS awarded 28 of the 33 total grants to regional and specialty practice transformation networks, with individual awards ranging from approximately $334 thousand to $45.4 million. A small second cohort followed in October 2015. The final singular award in January 2019 marked the program's conclusion.
CMS dominated the funding landscape entirely, obligating $512.7 million across 30 awards. A second federal funder obligated $3.8 million across 3 awards. The most recent solicitation (CMS-1L1-15-003, due February 5, 2015) sought organizations with pre-existing relationships with multiple clinicians and practices capable of receiving clinical data to serve as cooperative agreement recipients leading practice transformation. A subsequent direct announcement in March 2019 reflected a merger between Maine Quality Counts and Qualidigm but did not solicit new applicants.
