§ 54.630 Eligible recipients.
(a) Rural health care provider site—individual and consortium. Under the
Healthcare Connect Fund, an eligible rural health care provider may receive
universal service support by applying individually or through a consortium.
For purposes of the Healthcare Connect Fund, a “consortium” is a group of
two or more health care provider sites that request support through a single
application. Consortia may include health care providers who are not
eligible for support under the Healthcare Connect Fund, but such health care
providers cannot receive support for their expenses and must participate
pursuant to the cost allocation guidelines in § 54.639(d).
(b) Limitation on participation of non-rural health care provider sites in a
consortium. An eligible non-rural health care provider site may receive
universal service support only as part of a consortium that includes more
than 50 percent eligible rural health care provider sites.
(c) Limitation on large non-rural hospitals. Each eligible non-rural public
or non-profit hospital site with 400 or more licensed patient beds may
receive no more than $30,000 per year in Healthcare Connect Fund support for
eligible recurring charges and no more than $70,000 in Healthcare Connect
Fund support every 5 years for eligible nonrecurring charges, exclusive in
both cases of costs shared by the network.
