FINANCIAL SUPPORT FOR MILLIONS OF HEALTH CARE PROVIDERS NATIONWIDE
Up to 2% of patient revenue regardless of a previous disbursement.

 Many health care providers are experiencing significant financial hardships in the COVID-19 pandemic. Congress provided $175 billion in relief funds to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to deliver financial relief to hospitals and other health care providers, including those on the front lines of the coronavirus response. Since March, HHS, through the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), has been distributing the funds to various providers in phases to support their increased healthcare-related expenses or lost revenue that are attributable to COVID-19; and to reimburse claims for the testing and treatment of uninsured individuals diagnosed with COVID-19.

The latest phase of funding is now available through August 28, 2020. Visit this web page to learn more and get started with the application.

Who is eligible to apply?

  • Providers who bill Medicare, Medicaid, Medicaid managed care, or CHIP
  • Dental providers who accept insurance, as well as bill patients directly
  • First-time or previous applicants may apply as long as they haven’t already received 2% of their patient revenue

Deadline, as Letters on a Clock

The RCPA member Alternative Pay Arrangements/Agreements (APA) survey has been extended to close of business Wednesday, August 12. Members may access the survey here.

The survey responses we have received so far have provided excellent insight, and we look forward to collecting additional thoughts by extending the survey. We respectfully request that one survey be completed for each program areas if the APAs differ across your service continuum. The data we collect will be instrumental in our collective efforts with the Department of Human Services and managed care organizations regarding strategic fiscal considerations in the coming months.

Thank you for your support! If you have questions, please contact RCPA Children’s Division Director Jim Sharp or your RCPA Policy Director.
