The Bureau of Health Workforce (BHW) is offering the Children’s Hospitals Graduate Medical Education (CHGME) Payment Program grant to address the disparity in graduate medical education (GME) funding for freestanding children’s teaching hospitals. Unlike full-service teaching hospitals, children’s hospitals receive minimal GME funds from Medicare due to their low Medicare caseload. This grant, administered by BHW under the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) within the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), aims to provide compensation and support to ensure quality medical education for pediatric care at children’s hospitals. Application deadline is July 23, 2019.

| Additional Information on Eligibility: | There are two categories of children’s hospitals that may be eligible for CHGME payments in FY 2020, depending on the funding appropriated to the program – “Currently Eligible Hospitals” and “Newly Qualified Hospitals”. Hospitals that are applying for the first time for the CHGME Payment Program may be hospitals that are eligible as a “Newly Qualified Hospital” or hospitals that are new to the CHGME Payment Program but qualify under the “Currently Eligible Hospitals” requirements. |
Additional Information
| Agency Name: | Health Resources and Services Administration |
| Description: | Federal funding for graduate medical education (GME) is primarily provided by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) and goes to full service teaching hospitals that serve primarily adult patients. Freestanding children’s hospitals receive little to no GME funding from Medicare because children’s hospitals have a low Medicare caseload. The purpose of the CHGME Payment Program is to compensate for the disparity in the level of Federal GME funding for freestanding children’s teaching hospitals versus other types of teaching hospitals. The CHGME Payment Program is administered by the Bureau of Health Workforce (BHW), Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). |
