WASHINGTON - The Department of Health and Human Services has announced additional funding for health care providers through the Provider Relief Fund. Providers that already received their relief of 2% of net patient revenue through the $50 billion Phase 1 and 2 of General Distribution are again eligible for the new $20 billion Phase 3 of General Distribution, AAHomecare reports. Additionally, providers that started servicing patients in 2020 that were previously ineligible for the General Distribution Phase 1 & 2 of General Distribution are now eligible for this funding. HHS will determine the appropriate additional payments by considering the provider's change in patient revenue, change in expenses from patient care and funding already received from other Provider Relief Fund payments. Applications for Phase 3 open Oct. 5 and end Nov. 6.
