System Alert

 

Health Center Program Change in Scope (CIS) Requests:

 

The CIS module will be unavailable from October 20 through November 19, 2026, while HRSA updates the system. The CIS module will reopen November 20, 2026.

 

HRSA will close:

 

  • New CIS requests not submitted to HRSA by 11:59 p.m. ET on October 19.
  • CIS requests returned for clarifying information (Change Requests) not resubmitted to HRSA by 11:59 p.m. ET on October 24.

You can create and submit a new CIS request when the CIS module reopens November 20.

 

Health Center Program Funding and Look-Alike Designation Applications:

 

Applications not submitted to HRSA by 5:00 p.m. ET on November 19, 2026, will lose data you entered in scope-related forms (Form 5A: Services Provided, Form 5B: Service Sites, and Form 5C: Other Activities/Locations). Applicants will not need to recomplete their entire application; they will only need to re-enter data in these three scope-related forms (Form 5A, Form 5B, and Form 5C) once the system reopens November 20. This does not impact applications with read-only scope-related forms.

System Alert

 

Beginning September 2026: An enhanced Progress Reporting Module (PRM) will provide QIF-DNDD award recipients  with a more streamlined experience for managing and submitting monthly progress reports (MPRs). Look for additional information and transition guidance in the coming weeks.

 Purpose

The FY 2027 Health Center Program Service Area Competition (SAC) funding improves the health of medically underserved communities and populations by providing grants to support the delivery of comprehensive, high-quality preventive and primary health care services in the United States and its territories. For each SAC Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO), service areas available for competition are announced in the Service Area Announcement Table (SAAT). Throughout the year, we may announce additional service areas in a Service Area Competition-Additional Area (SAC-AA) if an awarded health center cannot continue to provide services in the funded service area.
