organization record), be sure to add this grant to your portfolio. This registration in HRSA EHBs is required for submission of noncompeting
continuation applications. In addition, you can also use HRSA EHBs to perform other activities such as updating addresses, updating email

Failure to comply with the remarks, terms, conditions, or reporting requirements may result in a draw down restriction being placed
on your Payment Management System account or denial of future funding.
Grant Specific Term(s)
1. Healthy Start funds may not be used for entertainment costs. Trips and/or activities for Healthy Start clients must relate to both the goal of
reducing infant mortality and the approved project objectives

chief financial officer, must have prior approval from the Grants Management Officer . The grantee must obtain prior approval from the
awarding office for changes in scope, direction, type of service delivery or training, and rebudgeting of Healthy Start funds.
4. This Notice of Award is issued based on HRSA’s approval of the Non­Competing Continuation (NCC) Progress Report. All post­award
requests, such as significant budget revisions or a change in scope, must be submitted as a Prior Approval action via the Electronic
Handbooks (EHBs) and approved by HRSA prior to implementation. Grantees under “Expanded Authority,” as noted in the Remarks section
of the Notice of Award, have different prior approval requirements. See “Prior­Approval Requirements” in the DHHS Grants Policy

govern Federal monies associated with this award are superseded by the Uniform Guidance 2 CFR 200 as codified by HHS at 45 CFR 75.
6. The funds for this award are in a sub­account in the Payment Management System (PMS). This type of account allows recipients to
specifically identify the individual grant for which they are drawing funds and will assist HRSA in monitoring the award. Access to the PMS
account number is provided to individuals at the organization who have permissions established within PMS. The PMS sub­account code
can be found on the HRSA specific section of the NoA (Accounting Classification Codes). Both the PMS account number and sub­account
code are needed when requesting grant funds. Please note that for new and competing continuation awards issued after 10/1/2020,
the sub­account code will be the document number.
You may use your existing PMS username and password to check your organizations’ account access. If you do not have access, complete
a PMS Access Form (PMS/FFR Form) found at: https://pms.psc.gov/grant­recipients/access­newuser.html. If you have any questions about

“Expanded Authority”. These recipients may take the following actions without prior approval of the Grant Management Office:
Section 75.308 c(2)(d)(1) Incur pre­award costs up to 90 calendar days before the award. See also 75.458.

Award Number: 5 H49MC00174-21-00
performance specified in the Federal award. This notification must be submitted through the Electronic Handbooks (EHB). This one­time
extension may not be exercised merely for the purpose of using unobligated balances.
Section 75.308 c(2)(d)(3) Carry forward unobligated balances to subsequent periods of performance.
Except for funds restricted on a Notice of Award, grantee organizations are authorized to carry over unobligated grant funds up to the lesser
of 25% or $250,000 of the amount awarded for that budget period remaining at the end of that budget period. If the unobligated balance is in
excess of 25% of the total amount awarded, or $250,000, whichever is less, and the grantee wishes to carry the funds forward, the grantee
must obtain prior approval from the Grants Management Office.
The grantee must notify the Grants Management Office when it has elected to carry over unobligated balances under Expanded Authority
and the amount to be carried over. The notification must be provided under item 12, “Remarks”, on the initial submission of the Federal
Financial Report (FFR).
For all other Post Award request refer Standard Term 5 below.
3. Each project is expected to establish a plan to recover, to the maximum extent feasible, third party revenues to which it is entitled for services
provided; garner all other available Federal, state, local, and private funds; and charge beneficiaries according to their ability to pay for
services without creating a barrier to those services. Where third­party payors, including Government agencies, are authorized or are under
legal obligation to pay all or a portion of charges for health care services, "all such sources must be billed for covered services, and every
effort must be made to obtain payment. Each service provider receiving Federal funds, either directly or indirectly, must have a procedure to
identify all persons served who are eligible for third­party reimbursement."
4. All MCHB discretionary grant projects are expected to incorporate a carefully designed and well­planned evaluation protocol capable of
demonstrating and documenting measurable progress toward achieving the stated goals. The measurement of progress toward goals
should focus on systems, health and performance indicators, rather than solely on the intermediate process measures.
5. In accordance with the requirements of the “Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA) of 1993” (Public Law 103­62), MCHB has
established measurable goals for Federal programs that can be reported as part of the budgetary process, thus linking funding decisions
with performance. Performance measures and data elements for all MCHB­funded grant programs including Healthy Start have been
finalized. As previously communicated all Healthy Start projects are expected to participate in the MCHB reporting requirements system.
6. Grantees must use the DHSPS screening tools, must report aggregate level data on a monthly basis to DHSPS, and report progress on
benchmarks in the MCHB Discretionary Grants Information System.
7. Grantees are required to participate in the National Evaluation of Healthy Start Programs and respond to data request for information from
the Division and the supporting HS performance project.
8. HRSA reserves the right to reduce base awards for grantees that consistently maintain unobligated balance greater than $100,000.
9. A grantee can propose to include an evidence­based home visiting model as part of their Healthy Start (HS) program as long as each
component of the program addresses the four HS approaches, and the evidence­based model allows for the HS program to collect the data
included in the HS screening tools. That is, the requirements of any curriculum or model chosen do not supersede the requirements of HS.
10. HRSA reserves the right to reduce funding if, after receiving Technical Assistance, grantee cannot fulfil the requirements of the grant. i.e.
progress on benchmarks, number of participants served.
11. Grantees are to budget for up to 3 persons each to attend mandatory regional meetings, and the Healthy Start convention.
Standard Term(s)
1. Your organization must comply with all HRSA Standard Terms unless otherwise specified on your Notice of Award.
Reporting Requirement(s)
1. Due Date: Within 90 Days of Award Issue Date
The grantee must submit a Performance Report within 90 days after receipt of the NoA. This report should include completing the financial
forms, project abstract, grant summary and performance measures. The performance report must be submitted using the Electronic
Handbook (EHB).
2. Due Date: Annually (Budget Period) Beginning: Budget Start Date Ending: Budget End Date, due Quarter End Date after 90
days of reporting period.
The recipient must submit an annual Federal Financial Report (FFR). The report should reflect cumulative reporting within the project period
of the document number. Effective October 1, 2020, all FFRs will be submitted through the Payment Management System (PMS).
Technical questions regarding the FFR, including system access, should be directed to the Help Desk at PMSFFRSupport@psc.hhs.gov.
The FFR will be due 90, 120, or 150 days after the budget period end date. Please refer to the chart below for the specific due date for your
