Key Provider Relief Fund Deadlines
Returning Funds and RP3 Late Reporting Requests: Providers who submitted their Reporting Period 3 (RP3) reports and did not “spend” all of the PRF from this period, will need to return the difference as was listed on their Review and Submit summary page in the portal. These funds must be returned by Sunday, October 30th.  Information on how providers can return funds are here. Providers, who needed to report for RP3 but missed the Sept. 30, 2022 deadline, will have the opportunity to submit a Late Reporting Request via this link for one of the following reasons:

  • Severe illness or death – a severe medical condition or death of a provider or key staff member responsible for reporting hindered the organization’s ability to complete the report during the Reporting Period.
  • Impacted by natural disaster – a natural disaster occurred during or in close proximity of the end of the Reporting Period damaging the organization’s records or information technology.
  • Lack of receipt of reporting communications – an incorrect email or mailing address on file with HRSA prevented the organization from receiving instructions prior to the Reporting Period deadline.
  • Failure to click “Submit” – the organization registered and prepared a report in the PRF Reporting Portal but failed to take the final step to click “Submit” prior to deadline.
  • Internal miscommunication or error – internal miscommunication or error regarding the individual who was authorized and expected to submit the report on behalf of the organization and/or the registered point of contact in the PRF Reporting Portal.
  • Incomplete Targeted Distribution payments – the organization’s parent entity completed all General Distribution payments, but a Targeted Distribution(s) was not reported on by the subsidiary.

Late Reporting Requests can be submitted now through Friday, October 28th at 11:59 PM ET.  If the request is approved, providers will submit their RP3 reports between November 14 and December 2. Providers who fail to submit a required PRF report are considered out of compliance with the terms and conditions of the PRF funds and as such, will be required to return all funds received during this period.

Here is an article with more details on the two PRF deadlines that certain providers must meet this week.  Questions? Contact Nicole Fallon nfallon@leadingage.org at Leadingage.
