Telehealth Centers of Excellence

The Health Resources and Services Administration is funding the Telehealth Centers of Excellence program through a cooperative agreement to support academic medical centers in implementing and evaluating innovative telehealth solutions for rural and underserved communities. The work focuses on serving as national models by testing concepts, developing proven approaches, and expanding access to care and improved health outcomes that can be replicated nationally. The opportunity is limited to the two current COE recipients, with no cost sharing required, and the award is structured for two awards at $4,250,000 each. Applications are estimated to close on June 1, 2026, with submissions due electronically by 11:59 p.m. ET, and the listed contact is Tracy Tendo at TTendo@hrsa.gov or 301-443-5503.
