Some are joining this late. How do they get the recording and slide set?

We do plan to send these out. However, they can email the resource mailbox ruralresidency@hrsa.gov to request the slides/recording. Thanks!

@GMO - is defraying housing cost (i.e., portion of rent or a stipend) allowed (as that is not acquiring or building real property)

Hi Lee - Is this related to resident housing?

Hi, This is actually a Program question and Imhave forwarded it to Ms. Johnson

@Sheena - yes

RRPD will respond since Sheena is presenting

“NE” is Nebraska not New England… LOL

Are you asking about construction inside walsls of a building or supporting housing for residents.

Hi Irene, we know that construction/acquiring real property are not allowable, but wondering if part of these funds could be used to help w/ a resident stipend to help cover rent costs (while the community stakeholders work on long-term housing options for health providers/trainees on the island)

TY Jemima. If it is for resident support for housing = it would be no. If this is for remodeling space inside an existing building it would be yes. We will address in more detail later to clarify.

Hi Lee, paying for housing may be considered stipend, which is not an allowable cost.

Thank you, Jemima!

THank you, Irene

😊 Thanks Lou, those state abbreviations can be tricky.

We can restate that for the recording to correct.

We have a current Tax ID Name. But we are changing our name as of 1/1/2023, But the name change may not be completed in government entities. Our application should be current name or the name we are changing to on 1/1/23?

Hi Patricia, you should use the name officially listed with the IRS.

The funds could not be used for operational costs during the implementation of the program after accreditation. Nor for any resident stipend, salary, or costs.

Sorry in my message I meant resident costs of stipend/salary are not eligible

A copy of the RRPD TAC presentation will be uploaded to RuralGME.org.

How about resident travel? Most rural programs involve significantly more travel expenses for everyone involved - including residents.

Can a training in Rural Legislative center count toward rural training?

What is the difference of this NOFO HRSA-23-037 and the HRSA-23-015?

Policy training mostly

Can a sponsor be a State Department of Health?

yes partly

Will do

I believe that CMS looks at residents providing patient care as the main (maybe only…) criteria for being in a “rural location”. Residents certainly do educational activities that aren’t patient care (e.g. noon conferences at a patient care site) and these are clearly allowed as being in the rural location.

Can it be an FQHC?

Really great TA session. Everyone did well. Nice slides too.

Past applications can be accessed by Foia but takes a long time. Are they available anywhere?

Hi Arlene, can you elaborate?

Thank you for all the information!

Abstracts are also available at the HRSA Data Warehouse generally.

Thank you!

looking at starting a Preventive Medicine Residency that would not necessary need to be assoiciated with a hosptial

I can’t unmute

For access to past applications, you could also use the project director information on the HRSA Data Warehouse site to contact a project director directly and ask if they'd be willing to share their application. Just a thought.

The preventive medicine residency programs do not at this time receive GME.

Just out patient care at FQHC
