Grant Description

This announcement solicits applications for the Childrenуs Hospitals Graduate Medical Education (CHGME) Payment Program. ФFederal funding for graduate medical education (GME) is primarily provided by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). ФPrior to the enactment of the CHGME Payment Program, childrenуs teaching hospitals received a disproportionately low amount of Federal funding when compared to teaching hospitals that serve adult patients. ФThe purpose of the CHGME Payment Program is to compensate for the disparity in the level of Federal funding for freestanding children teaching hospitals versus other types of teaching hospitals. ФThe CHGME Payment Program is administered by the Bureau of Health Professions (BHPr), Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS).
