RHC COVID-19 Testing & Mitigation Closeout Reporting Due January 31st

Sarah Hohman, Deputy Director of Government Affairs

Dear RHC Community,

The RHC COVID-19 Testing & Mitigation (RHCCTM) program final reporting requirements have opened for RHCs to complete on RHCcovidreporting.com. As a reminder, this program allocated $100,000 per eligible RHC in 2021 for COVID-19 testing and mitigation related expenses and could be spent between January 1, 2021, and December 31, 2022.

The RHCCTM program closeout reporting requires RHCs to attest whether they fully spent, partially spent, or did not spend the funding. It is a simple one question attestation that does not require any submission of cost documentation. However, please keep complete records of these expenses within your organization in the event of a future audit. The closeout will also prompt an optional survey that will help us understand the advantages and challenges of this program. We encourage RHCs to complete this survey to help us improve potential future programs.

Once an RHC submits their RHCCTM closeout attestation, they no longer need to login to RHCcovidreporting.com on a monthly basis. If the paid TIN indicates that it did not spend the full amount of funding by December 31, 2022, it will be prompted with return instructions during the closeout process. Returns must be initiated by March 2, 2023. For a video walkthrough of the closeout reporting process, please click here.

With any questions on RHCCTM reporting requirements, please email RHCcovidreporting@narhc.org.

Sincerely,
National Association of Rural Health Clinics
