HHS, through HRSA, announced the availability of nearly $90 million in American Rescue Plan funding to support new data-driven efforts for HRSA Health Center Program-supported health centers and look-alikes to identify and reduce health disparities. Read the press release.

HRSA’s modernized data collection and reporting initiative, called Uniform Data System Patient-Level Submission (UDS+), is designed to collect more and better data on social determinants of health, while also streamlining and improving data quality reporting for health centers. This effort will enable health centers to tailor their efforts to improve health outcomes and advance health equity, more precisely targeting the needs of specific communities or patients.

Fiscal Year 2022 American Rescue Plan UDS+ Funding (ARP-UDS+) applications are due in HRSA's Electronic Handbooks by 5:00 p.m. ET on Monday, May 23.

Visit the ARP-UDS+ technical assistance (TA) webpage for the notice of funding opportunity and other resources. Access the list of eligible HRSA-funded health centers and Health Center Program look-alikes.
