AGENCY: Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), Department

ACTION: Notice of Single-Case Deviation from Competition Requirement 
for Program Expansion for the National Center for Medical Home 
Implementation Cooperative Agreement at the American Academy of

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: HRSA announces its intent to award a program expansion 
supplement in the amount of $300,000 for the National Center for 
Medical Home Implementation (NCMHI) cooperative agreement. The purpose 
of the NCMHI cooperative agreement, as stated in the funding 
opportunity announcement, is to: (1) Support a national resource and 
technical assistance effort to implement and spread the medical home 
model to all children and youth, particularly children with special 
health care needs (CSHCN), children who are vulnerable and/or medically 
underserved, and pediatric populations served by state public health 
programs, MCHB, and HRSA; and ( ) support activities of the Healthy 
Tomorrows Partnership for Children Program (HTPCP) grantees to improve 
children's health through innovative community-based efforts, and 
community and statewide partnerships among professionals in health, 
education, social services, government, and business. The purpose of 
this notice is to award supplemental funds to develop the Rural IMPACT 
project to support activities related to child health in rural and 
underserved communities by the American Academy of Pediatrics, the 
cooperative agreement awardee who serves as the NCMHI, during the 
budget period of July 1, 2015, to June 30, 2016. The NCMHI is 
authorized by the Social Security Act, Title V, Sections 501(a)(1)(D) 
and 501(a)(2)), (42 U.S.C. 701).
    The NCHMI is a national resource to implement and spread the 
medical home model to all children and youth, particularly children 
with special health care needs and children who are vulnerable and/or 
medically underserved. The NCMHI supports activities of the Health 
Tomorrows Partnership for Children Program grantees to improve 
children's health through innovative community-based efforts, and 
community and statewide partnerships among professionals in health, 
education, social services, government, and business.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    Intended Recipient of the Award: The American Academy of 
Pediatrics.
    Amount of the Non-Competitive Award: $300,000.
    CFDA Number: 93.110.
    Current Project Period: July 01, 2008-June 30, 2018.
    Period of Supplemental Funding: July 1, 2015-June 30, 2016.
    Authority: Social Security Act, Title V, sections 501(a)(1)(D) and 
501(a)(2), (42 U.S.C. 701).
    Justification: The White House Rural Council is leading a Rural 
Child Poverty Initiative, the Rural IMPACT Project, to support improved 
well-being and upward economic mobility of children in rural and tribal 
communities. In collaboration with the White House Rural Council, HRSA, 
and the Administration for Children and Families, each using its own 
authority, used fiscal year (FY) 2015 funds to support a cohort of 10 
rural and Tribal communities to provide two-generation, bundled 
services to children and families in need. Utilizing the two-generation 
approach, the communities will promote problem solving at the community 
level by encouraging pediatric clinicians' participation and public-
private partnership, such as the Early Childhood Comprehensive Systems 
Initiative, Project Launch, and private sector support for improved 
collaboration and coordination of and access to mental, oral, and 
physical health and non-clinical resources (e.g. home visiting, early 
care and education settings such as child care and Head Start, early 
intervention, child welfare, education) at the community level for 
children, youth, and their families.
    In 2013, following objective review of its application, HRSA 
awarded to the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) cooperative 
agreement funding for the NCMHI. If approved, this would be the first 
project expansion supplement for this project.
    Through the NCMHI, the AAP is working to link key state and 
community programs, such as Title V, school-based health centers, Head 
Start, and Early Intervention, which are critical, natural access 
points for building and strengthening integrated service delivery 
systems for women, children, and their families. Working with the 
Healthy Tomorrows Partnership for Children Program grantees and the AAP 
Council on Community Pediatrics Rural Health Special Interest Group, 
the NCMHI supports activities that promote access to quality, patient/
family-centered and culturally effective services for children, youth 
and their families, particularly in rural and underserved communities.
    The proposed Rural IMPACT Project activities align with the current 
project plan, as the NCMHI advances system changes and new initiatives 
at the community, state, and national levels, building on community 
partnerships to support family-centered medical home implementation for 
all children and youth, particularly those underrepresented and from 
diverse communities (Goal 3). The AAP, working with MCHB, would 
establish an expert workgroup and operational structure to guide the 
initiative; develop and issue a solicitation and scoring process and 
conduct a review of applications to make recommendations for 
participating communities; develop a quality improvement package; 
identify systems-level measures to monitor process and progress of 
individual communities and the initiative as a whole, and provide 
structured technical assistance to the selected communities.
