Terms and Conditions

on your Payment Management System account or denial of future funding.
Grant Specific Term(s)
1.
45 CFR Part 75 applies to all federal funds associated with the award. Part 75 has been effective since December 26, 2014. All references
to prior OMB Circulars for the administrative and audit requirements and the cost principles that govern Federal monies associated with this
award are superseded by the Uniform Guidance 2 CFR Part 200 as codified by HHS at 45 CFR Part 75.
2.
This Notice of Award is issued based on HRSA’s approval of the Non-Competing Continuation (NCC) Progress Report. All post-award
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 “Prior-Approval Requirements” in the DHHS Grants Policy
Statement: https://www.hhs.gov/sites/default/files/grants/grants/policies-regulations/hhsgps107.pdf.
Program Specific Term(s)
1. The management Team, including key personnel, must reflect the cultural diversity of the Community to be served.
2.
This award is governed by the post-award requirements cited in Subpart D-Post Federal Award Requirements, standards for program and
fiscal management of 45 CFR Part 75 except when the Notice of Award indicates in the “Remarks” section that the grant is included under
“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 pre-award costs up to 90 calendar days before the award. See also 75.458.
Section 75.308 c(2)(d)(2) Initiate a one-time extension of the period of performance by up to 12 months unless one or more of the conditions
outlined in paragraphs (d)(2)(i) through (iii) of this section apply. For one-time extensions, the recipient must notify the HHS awarding agency
in writing with the supporting reasons and revised period of performance at least 10 calendar days before the end of the period of
performance specified in the Federal award. This notification must be submitted through the Electronic Handbooks (EHB). This one-time
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 third-party 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 third-party reimbursement."
4.
All MCHB discretionary grant projects are expected to incorporate a carefully designed and well-planned 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 103-62), MCHB has
NOTICE OF AWARD (Continuation Sheet)
Date Issued: 7/29/2024 11:28:32 AM
Award Number: 5 H49MC52117-02-00
Page 3
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 MCHB-funded 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 Healthy Start Data Collection Tools (i.e., the Demographic, Background, Prenatal, and Parent/Child forms) to collect
standardized client-level data elements and must report the collected data on a quarterly basis to the Division Healthy Start and Perinatal
Services (DHSPS) by uploading it to the Healthy Start Monitoring and Evaluation Data System (HSMED). Grantees must screen all Group-
Based Health Education and Case Management/Care Coordination participants using the data collection tools and screening
procedure/implementation guidance/form administration process provided by DHSPS.
7.
Grantees must respond to requests for information from DHSPS and the Technical Assistance and Support Center (TASC). Grantees are
required to participate in the National Healthy Start Evaluation activities, which may include, but is not limited to, grantee convenings, data
collection, staff interviews, and program case studies.
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 evidence-based home visiting model as part of their Healthy Start (HS) program if each component of
the program addresses all Health Start (HS) program requirements, and the evidence-based 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 to attend all mandatory regional meetings and the Healthy Start convention.
12. A change in service area must be approved by HRSA and require a prior approval submission in HRSA’s Electronic Handbook (EHB).
Standard Term(s)
1.
Your organization is required to have the necessary policies, procedures, and financial controls in place to ensure that your organization
complies with all legal requirements and restrictions applicable to the receipt of federal funding, per HRSA Standard Terms (unless
otherwise specified on your Notice of Award), and Legislative Mandates. The effectiveness of these policies, procedures, and controls is
subject to audit.
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
