PURPOSE II. This Program Assistance Letter (PAL) supersedes PAL for guidance on deeming requirements for organizations funded under the Health Center Program (section 330 of the Public Health Service (PHS) Act) and deemed as employees of the Public Health Service for purposes of Federal Tort Claims Act (FTCA) medical malpractice coverage under the Federally Supported Health Centers Assistance Act (FSHCAA) of 1992 and the FSHCAA of This PAL contains the instructions for health centers filing initial and renewal deeming applications for calendar year (CY) INTRODUCTION Federal Tort Claims Act (FTCA) coverage for eligible Health Center Program grantees was initially established through the FSHCAA of The eligible entities ("health centers") are organizations receiving funding under the Health Center Program (Community Health Centers, Migrant Health Centers, Health Care for the Homeless Centers, and Public Housing Primary Care Centers). Health centers are required to reapply each year for deeming and associated medical malpractice coverage. As a part of continued efforts to streamline and automate data reporting processes, the Bureau of Primary Health Care (BPHC) is developing a FTCA deeming module within the HRSA Electronic Handbooks (EHB) for the CY 2010 deeming period (January 1 December 31, 2010). This module will fully support electronic web-based functionality for the deeming process including: grantee completion and submission of applications; BPHC review and
2 processing of applications; and production of deeming status notifications to grantees. The module is expected to be available to Health Center Program grantees by June 2, This PAL is intended to help health centers prepare for the new FTCA deeming and redeeming submission requirements by indicating what information will be needed for the CY 2010 application submission. Additional information and training specific to the use of the webbased system will be made available closer to June 2, III. WHEN TO APPLY The FSHCAA of 1995 requires all health centers to apply for deemed status in order to obtain for FTCA coverage. A.
