The Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) opened the portal for health care providers to apply through October 26, 2021 for a portion of $25.5 billion in COVID-19 relief funds. Providers can submit a single application to request payments from both the $17 billion “Phase 4” Provider Relief Fund distribution and $8.5 billion in American Rescue Plan Act funds for rural providers. HRSA will host the first of four webinar sessions on September 30 at 3:00 P.M. ET about funding and how to navigate the application portal.

More information about funding and how to participate in the webinar sessions can be obtained at https://www.hrsa.gov/provider-relief/future-payments.
