Dear Brooks Ross:
The Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), in accordance with the Federally Supported Health
Centers Assistance Act (FSHCAA), as amended, sections 224(g) -(n) of the Public Health Service (PHS) Act, 42
U.S.C. §§ 233(g) -(n), deems Mountain Family Health Center to be an employee of the PHS, for the purposes of
section 224, effective 1/1/2015 through 12/31/2015.
Section 224(a) of the PHS Act provides liability protection under the Federal Tort Claims Act (FTCA), 28 U.S.C. §§
1346(b), 2672, or by alternative benefits provided by the United States where the availability of such benefits
precludes a remedy under the FTCA, for damage for personal injury, including death, resulting from the
performance of medical, surgical, dental, or related functions by PHS employees while acting within the scope of
such employment. This protection is exclusive of any other civil action or proceeding_ Coverage extends to deemed
entities and their (1) officers; (2) governing board members; (3) full- and part-time employees; and (4) contractors
who are licensed or certified individual health care practitioners providing full-time services (i.e., on average at least
32%2 hours per week for the entity for the period of the contract), or, if providing an average of less than 32%2 hours
per week of such service, are licensed or certified providers in the fields of family practice, general internal medicine,
general pediatrics, or obstetrics/gynecology. Volunteers are neither employees nor contractors and therefore are not
eligible for FTCA coverage under FSHCAA.
This Notice of Deeming Action (NDA) is also confirmation of medical malpractice coverage for both Mountain Family
Health Center and its covered individuals as described above. This NDA; along with documentation confirming
employment or contractor status with the deemed entity, may be used to show liability coverage for damage for
personal injury, including death, resulting from the performance of medical, surgical, dental, or related functions by
PHS employees while acting within the scope of such employment,
In addition, FTCA coverage is comparable to an "occurrence" policy without a monetary cap. Therefore, any
coverage limits that may be mandated by other organizations are met.
This action is based on the information provided in your FTCA deeming application, as required under 42 U.S.C. §
233(h), with regard to your entity's: (1) implementation of appropriate policies and procedures to reduce the risk of
malpractice and litigation; (2) review and verification of professional credentials and privileges, references, claims
history; fitness, professional review organization findings, and licensure status of health professionals, (3)
cooperation with the Department of Justice (DOJ) in the defense of claims and actions to prevent claims in the
future; and (4) cooperation with DOJ in providing information related to previous malpractice claims history.
Deemed health centers must continue to receive funding under Section 330 of the PHS Act, 42 U.S.C. § 254b, in
order to maintain coverage as a deemed PHS employee. If the deemed entity loses its Section 330 funding, such
coverage will end immediately upon termination of the grant. In addition to the relevant statutory and regulatory
requirements, every deemed health center is expected to follow HRSA's FTCA-related policies and procedures,
which may be found online at http:/Iwww.bphc_hrsa.gov.
For further information, please contact your HRSA Project Officer as listed on your Notice of Grant Award or the
Bureau of Primary Health Care (BPHC) Help Line at 1-877-974-2742 or bphchelpline@hrsa.gov.
