Utah hospital association foundation to administer $48.2 million in competitive RHTP contracts

Utah reports that all of its $195.7 million first-year funding has been awarded, while administrators continue distributing competitive subgrants. The Utah Healthcare Education & Research Foundation will administer nearly $48.2 million through about 60 contracts, and new local coverage identifies more than $6.5 million for three Box Elder County projects. Recruitment is a priority, but application details and the relationship between state awards and remaining subgrant opportunities need clarification.
