PRF Reporting Portal Now Open
The Provider Relief Fund (PRF) Reporting Portal is now open for providers to report fund use for April 10, 2020 through June 30, 2020. Providers who received one or more PRF payments exceeding $10,000, in the aggregate, during this time have until September 30, 2021 to submit the initial report.
Last month, the US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), through the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), released updated PRF reporting requirements. The updates provided more reporting time, reducing burdens on smaller providers, and extending key deadlines for expending PRF payments received after June 30, 2020.
HRSA has released several new resources to support efforts as you begin the reporting process, including a Data Entry Workbook, Reporting-specific FAQs, and Submitting Reporting Information user guide.
You are encouraged to register in the reporting portal in advance of your relevant reporting time period dates; registration is required before reporting. This takes approximately 20 minutes and must be completed in one session. HRSA has developed a Registration User Guide to assist.
As a reminder, the reporting timelines are as follows:
| Payment Received Period (Payments Exceeding $10,000 in Aggregate Received) |
Deadline to Use Funds | Reporting Time Period | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Period 1 | From April 10, 2020 to June 30, 2020 | June 30, 2021 | July 1 to September 30, 2021 |
| Period 2 | From July 1, 2020 to December 31, 2020 | December 31, 2021 | January 1 to March 31, 2022 |

The HRSA Provider Support Line is available at (866) 569-3522 (TTY dial 711) for questions. Hours of operation are 8:00 am to 10:00 pm Central, Monday through Friday. Additional updates and resources from AHCA/NCAL will be shared as they become available.
