PRF Reporting Relief - 60-Day Grace Period Announced

September 15, 2021

In response to the recent COVID surges and natural disasters occurring in the U.S., a 60-day grace period has been put into place to allow providers who received Provider Relief Funds (PRF) ample time to come within compliance. 


The Health Resources and Services Administration shared important details including:

  •  "While you will be out of compliance if you do not submit your report by September 30, 2021, recoupment or other enforcement actions will not be initiated during the 60-day grace period (October 1 – November 30, 2021).

  • The grace period begins on October 1, 2021 and will end on November 30, 2021.

  • Providers who are able are strongly encouraged to complete their report in the PRF Reporting Portal by September 30, 2021.

  • Providers should return unused funds as soon as possible after submitting their report. All unused funds must be returned no later than 30 days after the end of the grace period (December 30, 2021).

This grace period only pertains to the Reporting Period 1 report submission deadline. There is no change to the Period of Availability for use of PRF payments." - https://www.hrsa.gov/provider-relief/reporting-auditing
