Kentucky RHT Rooted in Health — Establish or Expand Accredited Dental Hygiene Programs

Kentucky CHFS currently lists August 1, 2026 as the deadline for the accredited dental hygiene RHT opportunity, and that date has passed. Because the linked RFA also contains rolling-basis language, Atlas is treating current funding availability as unverified and is not authorizing new applicant outreach unless DPH confirms that applications are still being accepted. The RFA identifies $9.9 million for the initiative, with no universal per-award ceiling published.

Funding$9.9 million total initiative funding available beginning July 1, 2026; award sizes vary by applicant volume and proposed budgets, and the RFA states no universal per-applicant ceiling.

DeadlineFunding availability is currently ambiguous across official Kentucky sources. The controlling RFA states applications would be reviewed on a rolling basis and that applications received after the May 22, 2026 deadline would not be guaranteed consideration for funding available July 1, 2026. The separate CHFS Grant Opportunities page lists August 1, 2026 as the deadline, while the current Rural Health Transformation funding page leaves the deadline blank and does not mark the program closed. Current acceptance and remaining funds must therefore be confirmed directly with Kentucky DPH before applicant outreach or submission. No exact closing time or time zone is published.

Required next actionDo not initiate new applicant outreach or package submission until Kentucky DPH confirms that applications are still being accepted and funds remain available. If confirmed, verify nonprofit Kentucky educational-institution eligibility, CODA authority/readiness, added rural training slots, rural student pipeline and placement plan, documented rural clinical partnerships, institutional leadership support, Year 1 spend readiness, sustainability, current budget template, and submission instructions.

Kentucky accepts Civil Money Penalty Reinvestment Program applications year-round for qualified projects that directly improve nursing-home resident quality of care or quality of life. Current CMS rules materially restrict routine services, required medical equipment, telemedicine, and certain complex technology uses.

FundingCurrent CMS/Kentucky CMPRP category caps generally provide up to $6,000 per nursing home for Resident/Family Council and Consumer Information projects, and up to $6,000 per nursing home per year per topic for Training to Improve Quality of Care and Activities to Improve Quality of Life. Training may total up to $18,000 over a three-year project. CMS may consider justified exceptions above established caps at its discretion; no single universal Kentucky applicant ceiling applies across all project types.

DeadlineRolling year-round; Kentucky accepts applications throughout the year and publishes no fixed closing date/time. Applicants should use the current CMS-approved application and budget worksheet and allow sufficient lead time for Kentucky review and CMS approval before the proposed start date.

Required next actionIdentify a specific resident-benefit project, confirm applicant eligibility and absence of conflicts or duplicate funding, review the current CMP Application Handbook and budget worksheet, and submit the complete application to Kentucky OIG.
