About this program
The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) funds transformation of primary and specialist care delivery practices to accelerate adoption of Alternative Payment Models (APMs) under the Transforming Clinical Practice Initiative (TCPI) Support and Alignment Network (SAN) 2.0, CFDA 93.651, with anticipated award notification in September 2017.
The program funds cooperative agreements with continuing awardees and new applicants that serve as technical assistance providers to the broader TCPI network. SAN 2.0 recipients leverage primary and specialist care transformation expertise and learning to support accelerated practice transformation at scale, catalyzing adoption of APMs across the TCPI community in alignment with delivery system reform programs authorized under the Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act of 2015 (MACRA). The program operates as a continuation funding vehicle that enhances the TCPI network's expertise and capability to disseminate transformation knowledge and support the six goals of the broader TCPI initiative.
The program operates exclusively through Cooperative Agreements. CMS issues a Notice of Award signed by the Grants Management Officer that establishes award amount, standard terms and conditions, and any additional cooperative agreement terms or conditions specific to the effort or deficiencies identified in review. Awards are sent electronically to the Authorized Official and recipient organization listed on the SF 424. Communication between CMS and applicants prior to NoA issuance does not authorize performance or fund obligation.
Recipients must comply with Office of Management and Budget Circular A-133 audit requirements. Applications are screened for completeness and adherence to eligibility; applications received late, failing to meet eligibility requirements, or missing required forms are not reviewed. The source does not provide recent award amounts, recipient names, or historical award frequency data.
