Opportunity Information: Apply for HRSA 22 154
The Fiscal Year 2022 Accelerating Cancer Screening (AxCS) grant opportunity (HRSA-22-154) is a discretionary grant program from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA). It is designed specifically for HRSA-funded health centers and focuses on improving cancer screening in a way that is more equitable, meaning it prioritizes reducing gaps in access and outcomes among underserved and historically marginalized populations.
The main purpose of AxCS funding is to help eligible health centers expand access to cancer screening and strengthen the process of referral to follow-up care and treatment when screening results indicate a need for additional services. Rather than focusing only on increasing the number of screenings, the opportunity emphasizes practical, patient-facing support that helps people actually get screened and successfully move through next steps when needed. This includes strengthening patient education (so patients understand what screening is, why it matters, and how to get it), case management (to help patients navigate appointments, paperwork, insurance issues, and follow-up), outreach (to reach people who are overdue for screening or disconnected from care), and other enabling services that reduce real-world barriers such as transportation, language access, scheduling challenges, or difficulty understanding the health system.
A central expectation of this funding is collaboration with National Cancer Institute (NCI)-designated Cancer Centers. The model described in the notice highlights close partnership or coordination in which these cancer centers deploy outreach specialists and patient navigators to support the populations served by participating health centers. In practice, this means the health center is not expected to do the work alone; instead, it is expected to work alongside specialized cancer institutions that can provide expertise, navigation support, and outreach capacity to connect patients more effectively to screening and, if necessary, to diagnostic workups and treatment services.
Key administrative details from the notice include that the funding instrument is a grant, the activity category is Health, and the CFDA (now commonly referred to as Assistance Listing) number is 93.224. The opportunity was posted on May 4, 2022, with an original application closing date of June 15, 2022. HRSA anticipated making around 10 awards under this announcement. The posted award ceiling is listed as 0, which typically signals that applicants need to refer to the full notice for the precise funding amounts and any limits or that the ceiling was not entered in the summarized field even though awards are expected.
Eligibility is limited to HRSA-funded health centers, while the eligibility line in the summary is shown as "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)." In practical terms, the intent is that applicants must already be HRSA-supported health centers and meet the specific eligibility conditions described in the full program guidance. Overall, AxCS is structured as a targeted investment to help health centers remove barriers, strengthen navigation and outreach, and work in alignment with NCI-designated Cancer Centers to improve timely screening and the pathway into appropriate care.Apply for HRSA 22 154
