Hidalgo Medical Services (HMS) is proud to announce we have been awarded the Health Resources Services Administration (HRSA) 330 Grant, for an additional three years of funding. HMS has been an HRSA 330 Grantee serving Hidalgo County, Grant County, and the region since 1995.
This grant is part of the Health Center Program, which supports nonprofit organizations providing primary healthcare services to medically underserved populations. The purpose of this funding opportunity is to ensure ongoing access to high-quality healthcare services for communities currently served by the Health Center Program. Established under Section 330 of the Public Health Service Act, the health center program allows the HRSA to provide grants to health centers. The Health Center Program is funded through a mix of discretionary funding allocated annually by Congress and mandatory funding from the Community Health Center Fund (CHCF).
"With this continued financial support, Hidalgo Medical Services will continue to maintain its commitment to serving the residents of Hidalgo and Grant counties, ensuring access to quality healthcare services, and further strengthening our community," stated, Dr. Dan Otero, HMS CEO. This funding enables HMS to serve 16,854 unduplicated patients with a team of 274 dedicated employees who are passionate about making a difference in the lives of those we serve.
