Opportunity Information: Apply for HRSA 18 005
The Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program (RWHAP) Part C HIV Early Intervention Services (EIS) Program: Existing Geographic Service Areas (HRSA-18-005) is a discretionary federal grant opportunity from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, administered by the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA). It was announced for FY 2018 to continue and support outpatient HIV early intervention and ongoing care services in geographic areas already being served under this Part C program structure. The overall aim is to strengthen access to comprehensive, patient-centered HIV primary medical care and related supports for people living with HIV (PLWH) who are low income, uninsured, or underinsured, reducing barriers to care and improving health outcomes through earlier diagnosis, consistent treatment, and coordinated referrals.
At its core, the program is designed to fund clinics and community-based health providers that deliver HIV services in an outpatient setting, meaning care is provided through ongoing clinical visits rather than inpatient hospitalization. The emphasis on low income and coverage gaps reflects the Ryan White Program's long-standing role as a safety-net system for HIV care, particularly for patients who may not have reliable access to insurance, specialty providers, or supportive resources needed to stay in consistent treatment. In practical terms, the grant is meant to help providers offer integrated, frontline HIV care that includes both medical services and support linkages that keep patients engaged and stable in care over time.
Applicants funded under this announcement are expected to provide a defined set of required service components. First, they must offer targeted HIV counseling and testing, which generally means focusing testing and counseling efforts toward populations and settings where the likelihood of identifying undiagnosed HIV is higher, and ensuring that counseling and testing activities are connected to rapid pathways into medical care. Second, they must provide medical evaluation and clinical and diagnostic services, covering the routine and specialized assessments needed to evaluate HIV status, overall health, comorbidities, and treatment needs. Third, they are required to deliver therapeutic measures that prevent and treat deterioration of the immune system and address conditions arising from HIV/AIDS. This speaks to the central clinical objective of HIV care: initiating and maintaining effective treatment, monitoring disease progression, managing opportunistic infections when relevant, and addressing HIV-related complications so patients can achieve and sustain viral suppression and improved long-term health. Fourth, funded providers must ensure referrals to appropriate health care and support service providers, recognizing that many patients need services beyond what a single outpatient clinic can directly deliver, such as specialty care, behavioral health supports, substance use services, case management, housing-related supports, transportation assistance, or other enabling services depending on local needs and available resources.
This particular announcement is specifically for "existing geographic service areas," signaling that it is oriented toward maintaining or continuing service capacity in areas already supported under Part C EIS, rather than opening brand-new territories. The funding opportunity lists an expected 139 awards, indicating a broad national footprint of participating provider organizations. The notice also lists an award ceiling of 0, which typically means a specific maximum amount is not stated in the summary field and applicants must rely on the full funding announcement for detailed award and budget parameters. The program is identified under CFDA number 93.918, which is the federal assistance listing associated with this Ryan White Part C funding stream.
Key administrative details included in the source information are that the opportunity was created on June 28, 2017, with an original closing date of August 14, 2017. The eligible applicant category is described as "Others," with clarification referenced in an "Additional Information on Eligibility" section in the full announcement, suggesting that eligibility may be limited to certain types of entities or current recipients operating in the specified geographic service areas. Overall, the grant opportunity is structured to ensure that providers continue delivering the essential early intervention and comprehensive outpatient care elements that help diagnose HIV earlier, connect people to treatment quickly, keep them in consistent medical care, and coordinate the broader supports needed to manage HIV effectively.Apply for HRSA 18 005
