Opportunity Information: Apply for HRSA 22 059
The Rural Health Network Development Planning Program (HRSA 22-059) is a discretionary grant opportunity from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), listed under CFDA 93.912. It is designed to help rural communities organize and plan stronger, more coordinated health care delivery by building integrated health care networks. The program focuses on a one-year planning period, with the idea that rural providers often face shared challenges like limited staffing, tight budgets, and small patient volumes, and that working as a network can help them function more efficiently and sustainably than trying to solve problems individually.
At the center of the opportunity is the goal of creating or strengthening an "integrated health care network," which HRSA defines as an organizational arrangement involving at least three regional or local health care organizations working together. These partners are expected to jointly develop strategies to improve health services in their community. A key point is that the program is intentionally structured to bring together parts of the rural health system that may not have collaborated before, encouraging new relationships and shared planning across hospitals, clinics, and other rural health stakeholders. By supporting planning (rather than direct service expansion), the grant aims to build the groundwork for longer-term improvements in how care is delivered and coordinated locally.
The program's purpose is threefold: first, to achieve efficiencies by helping organizations share resources, align processes, and reduce duplication; second, to expand access to care and improve coordination and quality of basic health services, ultimately improving health outcomes; and third, to strengthen the rural health care system overall by building local capacity and improving the ability of rural partners to respond collectively to community needs. The notice highlights that rural networks can improve allocation of personnel and shared assets, support chronic disease prevention and management, build stronger trust and buy-in among partners and residents, improve data sharing, and increase the long-term sustainability of collaborative efforts. It also notes that a large majority of past awardees (88 percent) reported sustaining at least some network activities after the grant ended, which HRSA uses to underline that planning investments can lead to lasting changes.
In terms of funding details, the maximum award amount (ceiling) is $100,000, and HRSA anticipated making about 20 awards under this notice. The original application window opened with the posting around October 29, 2021, and the original closing date was January 28, 2022. Eligibility is listed broadly as "Others," with additional clarification expected in the full eligibility section of the official notice, but the practical emphasis is on multi-organization rural collaborations that can meet the minimum three-partner network definition and commit to a structured planning process.
Overall, this opportunity is best understood as a planning grant meant to help rural communities formalize partnerships, design shared strategies, and prepare for coordinated health interventions, rather than a grant meant primarily for immediate clinical service delivery. The end product HRSA is pushing toward is a workable, community-driven network plan that positions rural organizations to operate more effectively together and to pursue longer-term improvements in access, quality, coordination, and health outcomes.Apply for HRSA 22 059
