Pinckneyville Community Hospital

Pinckneyville Community Hospital, a municipality-owned rural healthcare facility based in Pinckneyville, Illinois, is a federal grant recipient (83% of recent awards) specializing in operational improvement, workforce development, and clinical infrastructure for rural hospital sustainability. The hospital does not hold federal contracts or seats on contract vehicles; its federal footprint consists entirely of grants from the Department of Health and Human Services Health Resources and Services Administration, the Department of Agriculture Rural Utilities Service, and related federal programs supporting rural healthcare delivery.

Pinckneyville's grant portfolio centers on the Delta Health Systems Implementation Program (CFDA 93.619), a two-year project-grant vehicle administered by HHS HRSA's Federal Office of Rural Health Policy for rural hospitals in Delta Region states. The hospital received a $350,000 grant award on September 1, 2026, obligated through August 31, 2028, to implement AI ambient listening technology for clinical documentation efficiency, conduct workforce professional development and recruitment initiatives, engage Chartis for Rural Hospital Performance Index improvement and quality initiatives, and partner with Virtucare to develop new urology surgical service lines. An earlier Delta Health Systems Implementation Program award of September 1, 2024, obligated through August 31, 2026, funds revenue cycle optimization around the hospital's May 2023 MEDITECH Expanse electronic health record implementation, including denial management automation, claims throughput improvement, and front-end workflow enhancements supported by Huron Consulting Group. The hospital also received a $1 million Project Grant under the Department of Agriculture's Community Facilities Loans and Grants program (CFDA 10.766) in March 2022 for rural health care facility enhancement and an August 1, 2024, Community Project Funding (Congressionally Directed Spending) award for Nihon Kohden cardiac monitoring and vital signs equipment installation in emergency, oncology, and surgical departments. In its single sub-award role, Pinckneyville participates as a sub-recipient under the University of Illinois on an HHS HRSA Areas Health Education Center (AHEC) program addressing workforce diversity, distribution, and practice transformation in rural and underserved communities.

Customer concentration reflects the rural healthcare mission: HHS HRSA dominates with four awards across its Health Resources and Services Administration and Federal Office of Rural Health Policy offices, the Department of Agriculture Rural Utilities Service holds one prime award, and the Delta Regional Authority holds one. One award reaches ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, creating modest recompete exposure. The hospital's federal engagement profile is narrow and specialized — rural healthcare operational grants rather than competitive federal procurement — with no general-and-open or set-aside contract bidding activity in the source data.
