WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Senator Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH) announced that funding for health care providers through the Provider Relief Fund and American Rescue Plan rural distribution is now available. Shaheen previously pushed the Department of Health and Human Services to distribute remaining COVID-19 relief for health care providers alongside Senator Susan Collins (R-ME), and in response HHS announced it would release $25.5 billion in awards. That funding includes $8.5 billion set aside for rural providers as well as $17 billion for PRF Phase 4 for a broad range of providers with changes in operating revenues and expenses.
Health care providers can submit their application for funding through both programs by Oct. 26, at 11:59 p.m. ET. More information about the application portal and eligibility can be found at hrsa.gov/provider-relief/future-payments.
