As part of the Affordable Care Act, federal dollars have been designated for “navigators” (people or organizations that will help explain the health law’s new programs). CMS is offering approximately $54 Million and HRSA is offering approximately $150 million in funds for navigators. The CMS money will go to contractors (for-profit or non-profit entities); the HRSA money is going exclusively to FQHCs. In addition, in May CMS announced that it will make another one billion dollars available for innovative healthcare reform/delivery initiatives. Click here for more info.
