HRSA’s New Scope of Project Manual: Key Changes and Practical Implications

A Two-Part Series

Join CHCANYS, in partnership with Powers Law, for a timely webinar focused on HRSA’s New Scope of Project Manual: Key Changes and Practical Implications — A Two-Part Series. 

HRSA’s new Health Center Program Scope of Project Policy Manual introduces significant changes to how health centers define and modify their approved scopes of project. From new standards for adding service sites to revised requirements governing service delivery arrangements, telehealth, co-located sites, and board oversight, the Manual has important implications for health center operations and compliance. 

Join us for a two-part series examining the new Scope Manual. The webinars will focus on the changes that matter most in practice, with examples and practical guidance to help health centers navigate scope decisions. 

September 30th from 12 – 1 PM 

Part I: Understanding the New Framework and Key Changes 

Part I will provide an overview of the new Scope Manual and focus on several of its most significant changes, including new standards for adding service sites, HRSA’s increased emphasis on directly operated services, new geographic restrictions applicable to telehealth, and expanded governing board responsibilities. We will also discuss the Manual’s emphasis on services provided “on behalf of” the health center and what that concept means for determining whether activities are appropriately included within the Health Center Program project. 

October 14th from 12 – 1 PM 

Part II: Applying the New Requirements to Health Center Operations 

Part II will take a deeper dive into the new requirements affecting how health centers structure and manage service delivery arrangements. Topics will include contracts and cooperative arrangements, subrecipient and contractor-operated sites, co-located settings, services provided outside health center service sites, and the elimination of Form 5C.
