Required next actionReview the latest West Piedmont Southside regional RFA and amendments at https://westpiedmontpdc.org/rural-health-transformation-fund/ and the official FAQ at https://westpiedmontpdc.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/RFA-FAQ-.pdf. Confirm qualified service geography, lead applicant requirements, amount and match, deadlines, eligible expenses, attachments and submission method before applying.
Broad Eligibility
The official West Piedmont Southside Regional Collaborative FAQ confirms that qualifying Virginia for-profit mobile-health technology firms may apply as lead applicants, as may eligible care providers and other qualifying organizations, subject to full RFA requirements. Applicants headquartered outside the posted region may apply if the proposed project directly serves eligible rural residents in the specified counties. A lead applicant must have an active UEI; material partners and contractors are not independently required to hold active SAM.gov registrations or UEIs. Necessary clinical partnerships should be established and supported by letters of commitment, MOUs or agreements. CHW-supported mobile/telehealth models can qualify without a physical mobile clinic. Separately billed covered care cannot also be charged to RHTP. Separate proposals across regional PDC RFAs are allowed for distinct rural populations and nonduplicative costs. Exact geographic list and detailed award terms still require controlling RFA verification.
Atlas Analysis
The official West Piedmont Southside regional announcement and FAQ establish a competitive applicant-facing RHTP subaward for mobile and hybrid healthcare. The FAQ addresses certain for-profit lead applicants, UEI and clinical partner documentation, community health worker models and separate applications for nonoverlapping regional projects. The complete original RFA has not been independently reviewed. An external listing reports November 23, 2026 and an approximately $11.8 million aggregate pool; neither claim should be relied upon without current administrator confirmation. A regional pool is not an individual award maximum.
Virginia RHTP: Southside Regional Collaborative Mobile and Hybrid Care
West Piedmont Planning District Commission (WPPDC), administering the Southside Regional Collaborative, has opened a genuine competitive applicant-facing Request for Applications for rural mobile and hybrid care. The official program page describes support for projects that establish, expand or deploy sustainable healthcare delivery models serving qualifying rural Virginia residents.
Eligible approaches include mobile care units, telehealth access kiosks, clinics in a box, provider-to-provider e-consultations, rural health hubs and hub-and-spoke technologies. Funded healthcare access may include primary, behavioral, substance-use, dental, vision, preventive, diagnostic and specialty services. A qualifying applicant may be based outside the region if the project serves the rural population specified by the RFA.
Funding: An individual applicant award ceiling was not independently verified. A secondary index reports approximately $11.8 million across the overall competitive regional program and at least five planned awards; the program pool must NOT be described as an individual award.
Deadline: A secondary opportunity index reports applications due November 23, 2026, at 5:00 p.m. Eastern, and written questions due November 20. Before applying, confirm both dates and the complete submission instructions directly against the original WPPDC RFA and any amendments.
Eligibility: The administrator FAQ explicitly permits eligible Virginia for-profit mobile-health technology firms to lead, provided all program, financial and geographic conditions are met; established clinical partners and appropriate licenses must support proposed services. Lead applicants must have an active UEI; material partners need not separately have one. The FAQ also allows distinct applications to different regional PDC RFAs if their populations and expenses do not overlap.
Before applying: Confirm exact eligible counties, applicant funding, match, reimbursement, indirect costs, eligible and prohibited expenses, budget/attachment requirements and submission method with the full controlling RFA.
