HRSA Proposes Updates to Health Center Program Forms, Invites Comments

Yesterday, October 20, 2026, HRSA issued a Federal Register notice outlining proposed updates to Health Center Program forms. This notice follows the release of HRSA’s new Health Center Program Scope of Project Policy Manual. The proposed changes include revisions to Forms 5A and 5B and several scope adjustment and change in scope checklists, as well as a new checklist for replacing a service site, a Quality Improvement Fund final report, and a Loan Guarantee progress report. HRSA says the updates are intended to improve scope documentation and streamline the change in scope process.
 
HRSA requests comments on:
  1. the necessity and utility of the proposed information collection for the proper performance of the agency’s functions;
  2. the accuracy of the estimated burden;
  3. ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and
  4. the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of information technology to minimize the information collection burden.


Comments are due by November 19, 2026, through Reginfo.gov.
