    Description

    The Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) is offering the Children's Hospitals Graduate Medical Education (CHGME) Payment Program, a federal grant aimed at addressing funding disparities for freestanding children's teaching hospitals. This program is designed to provide financial support for the education and training of pediatric medical residents, particularly focusing on enhancing care for low-income children, as these hospitals receive minimal GME funding due to their low Medicare caseload. Eligible applicants, which include freestanding children's hospitals that participate in an approved GME program, must submit their applications through HRSA's Electronic Handbooks by the deadline of August 8, 2024. The estimated total program funding is $366 million, with approximately 59 awards expected to be granted. For further inquiries, applicants can contact Lisa Flach-Fulcher at aflach-fulcher@hrsa.gov or call (301) 443-0365.
