HHS Provider Relief Fund Update and Rural Health Grants Eligibility

There is a 60-day grace period beyond September 30, 2021 for prior HHS Provider Relief Fund (PRF) reporting. In addition, there is one application to receive future pandemic relief funding from $25.5 billion in Phase 4 PRF and a Rural Health Grant program for health care providers in defined rural areas. This includes pharmacies!

Pharmacy advisor Scotty Sykes, CPA, CFP® highlights important PRF reporting deadlines as well as the process for independent pharmacies to apply for Phase 4 PRF and American Rescue Plan (ARP) Rural relief funding, beginning September 29, 2021.

Speak to your health care attorney about reporting compliance with PRF, especially if you have M&A activities.
