Teaching Health Center Planning and Development --Technical Assistance

The purpose of this cooperative agreement is to provide technical assistance (TA) to HRSA’s THCPD Program award recipients, as funded through HRSA-22-10 7. The THCPD Program supports the development of new community-based programs in family medicine, internal medicine, pediatrics, internal medicine-pediatrics,

psychiatry, obstetrics and gynecology, general dentistry, pediatric dentistry, and geriatrics to address the physician and dental workforce shortages and challenges faced by underserved communities.

Teaching Health Center residency programs are accredited medical and dental residency training programs that primarily train residents in community-based training sites and focus on producing physicians and dentists who will practice in medically underserved communities.

For example, one model is the 1+2 Rural Training Track (RTT), where the first year of training occurs within a larger community-based facility such as a Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC), and the final two years occur in a rural health community-based setting.

THCPD Program award recipients may use their funding to support the costs of establishing a community-based residency program, including costs associated with curriculum development; the recruitment, training and retention of residents and faculty; accreditation by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) or American Dental Association’s Commission on Dental Accreditation (CODA); and faculty salaries during the development phase.
