When not available, applicants should contact the funding agency for deadline information.
Range of Approval/Disapproval Time
From 30 to 60 days for initial approval or disapproval.
Preapplication Coordination
This program is subject to statutory provisions. States are required to submit an acceptable State Plan for Title XIX, and sign an 1864 Agreement for Title XVIII. This program is excluded from coverage under E.O. 12372.
Note:
This section indicates whether any prior coordination or approval is required with governmental or nongovernmental units
prior to the submission of a formal application to the federal funding agency.
Appeals
Title XVIII appeals are reviewed by the Armed Services Contracts Appeal Board; Title XIX appeals are reviewed by the Departmental Grants Appeal Board.
Note:
In some cases, there are no provisions for appeal. Where applicable, this section discusses appeal procedures or allowable rework time for resubmission
of applications to be processed by the funding agency. Appeal procedures vary with individual programs and are either listed in this section or
applicants are referred to appeal procedures documented in the relevant Code of Federal Regulations (CFR).
Renewals
Ongoing renewals are awarded to States that are willing and able to conduct required survey activities in compliance with statutory mandate.
Note:
In some instances, renewal procedures may be the same as for the application procedure, e.g., for projects of a non-continuing nature renewals will be treated as new, competing applications; for projects of an ongoing nature, renewals may be given annually.
