Rural Health Network Development Planning Grant Program: The purpose of the Rural Health Network Development Planning Grant Program is to provide support to entities that need assistance to plan, organize and develop a health care network because they do not have a significant history of collaboration and are not sufficiently evolved to apply for a three year Rural Health Network Development Grant. This support may be sufficient to jumpstart a network into becoming operational and developing strategies for becoming sustainable. The grant program supports one year of planning to develop and operationalize health care networks, consisting of at least three health care providers, in rural areas. Successful applicants can use one-year Planning Grants for laying the foundation of a rural health network to: (1) Identify potential collaborating network partners in the community/region; (2) Convene potential collaborating network partners; (3) Conduct planning activities, which could include: (a) Undertaking a community health needs assessment, (b) Identifying the most critical need of potential network partners to ensure their viability, (c) Identifying factors that will lead to the networks sustainability, i.e. enumerating the benefits that will accrue to network participants if their network is successful, (d) Developing a business, operation or strategic plan, (e) Developing a plan for the networks sustainability, (f) Carrying out organization development activities, e.g. creating a formal MOA/MOU establishing a network board establishing bylaws; applying for 501(c)3 status, etc or, (g) Begin carrying out network activities, including activities to promote the networks sustainability.
