DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES
Health Resources and Services Administration
Part D Grant for Coordinated HIV Services and Access to Research
for Women, Infants, Children, and Youth Part D Funds Under the Ryan
White HIV/AIDS Program
AGENCY: Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), HHS.
ACTION: Notice of Non-competitive Award of Part D Funds for the
University of Utah.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: HRSA will be awarding, non-competitively, Part D Funds to
support family-centered primary medical care, treatment, and support
services (directly or through contracts) for women, infants, children,
and youth with HIV/AIDS, to the University of Utah in order to ensure
continuity of critical HIV medical care and support services, to women,
infants, children and youth in Salt Lake City, Utah and the surrounding
counties.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Grantee of record: Utah Department of Health, Salt Lake City, Utah.
Intended recipient of the award: University of Utah, Salt Lake
City, Utah.
Amount of the award: $350.000 to ensure continuity of medical care
and support services to the target population.
Authority: Section 2671 of the Public Health Service Act, 42
U.S.C. 300ff-71.
CFDA Number: 93.918.
Project period: August 1, 2010, to July 31, 2011. The period of
support for this award is from August 1, 2010, to July 31, 2011.
Justification for the Exception to Competition
Funding for critical HIV medical care and support services to
women, infants, children and youth in Salt Lake City, Utah and the
surrounding areas will be continued through a non-competitive award to
the University of Utah. The Utah Department of Health is currently
contracting all of these services to the University of Utah. The
University of Utah has the clinical, fiscal, and administrative
infrastructure to administer the Part D Grant since it is currently the
Part C Early Intervention Services Grant recipient. This is a temporary
replacement award, as the previous grant recipient serving this
population notified HRSA that it could not continue as the grantee of
record after July 31, 2010. HRSA's HIV/AIDS Bureau identified the
University of Utah as the best qualified entity for this temporary
grant. Since the grant's inception, the Utah Department of Health has
contracted with the University of Utah to provide all Part D services,
and the University can continue to ensure family-centered care
involving outpatient or ambulatory care (directly or through contracts)
for women, infants, children, and youth living with HIV/AIDS. The
University is able to provide critical services with the least amount
of disruption to the service population while the service area is re-
competed.
This supplement will cover the time period from August 1, 2010,
through July 31, 2011. This service area will be included in the
upcoming competition for the Part D Coordinated HIV Services and Access
to Research for Women, Infants, Children, and Youth for project periods
starting August, 2011.
