Opportunity Information: Apply for HRSA 22 114
The Delta Region Rural Health Workforce Training Program (HRSA-22-114) is a federal funding opportunity from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), offered as a cooperative agreement under CFDA 93.912. It focuses on strengthening healthcare delivery in rural parts of the Mississippi River Delta Region and the Alabama Black Belt that fall within the Delta Regional Authority (DRA) region. Rather than concentrating on clinical providers, the program targets critical healthcare administrative support and business operations roles that are essential to keeping rural facilities financially stable, compliant, and able to serve patients efficiently.
The core purpose is to educate and train both current and future workers for in-demand administrative functions in rural healthcare settings, specifically medical coding and billing, claims processing, health information management, and clinical documentation. These roles directly affect how quickly and accurately facilities are reimbursed, how patient records are managed, and how documentation supports quality care and compliance. HRSA designed the program in collaboration with the DRA in response to needs identified by rural healthcare organizations in the region, recognizing that workforce gaps in these administrative occupations can be a major choke point for rural health systems.
A central feature of the program is the creation and use of "Strategic Networks" that connect academic institutions, community-based organizations, and rural healthcare facilities located in the DRA region. These networks are meant to do more than deliver coursework; they are intended to build an end-to-end pipeline that includes recruitment, structured training, support toward professional certification, and job placement. The program is also explicitly aimed at multiple participant groups: existing administrative support professionals already working in rural DRA-region facilities who need upskilling and credentialing, new entrants to the workforce, and dislocated workers seeking a pathway into stable healthcare employment.
The program goals emphasize both workforce development and long-term retention in rural communities. Key aims include improving rural healthcare delivery by raising the skills and capacity of administrative support staff, building a sustainable pipeline through formal partnerships across education and community organizations, and giving students hands-on experiences within community-focused rural healthcare facilities to strengthen local ties and increase the likelihood they stay and work in the area. Another explicit goal is to retain current rural healthcare staff by offering education and training for advancement in critical roles, reducing turnover and helping facilities maintain continuity in operations. The program also prioritizes expanding the use of industry-validated, competency-based credentials, with the idea that recognized certifications can make hiring and promotion decisions easier, reduce barriers for job seekers, and standardize skill expectations across rural employers.
From an administrative standpoint, the opportunity was posted on October 20, 2021, with an original application closing date of January 25, 2022. HRSA expected to make three awards. The listing shows an award ceiling of 0, which typically signals that applicants should rely on the official notice of funding opportunity for the specific funding limits, budgeting expectations, and any per-award caps or ranges. Eligibility is listed as "Others (see additional eligibility text)," indicating that the eligible applicant types may be broader or more specific than standard categories and would need to be verified in the full eligibility section of the announcement.Apply for HRSA 22 114
