Full Status Report:

The Department of Health (DOH) previously required subrecipient notification of uniform guidance criteria upon contract award only. On March 8, 2019 DOH issued expanded guidance to Grant Administrators of programs managing Federal grants on behalf of DOH. In addition to providing the subrecipient with information upon award, the Department must also issue a notification to the subrecipient if any of the data elements change in the standard template grant award letter which reflects the uniform guidance criteria. The Department will continue to communicate federal award information as part of our annual budget review and renewal process or as soon as we are able upon receipt of a notice of grant award, if such information from the federal oversight agency is not received prior to the start of the budget period.
