Delta Health Boost: HRSA Revises Rural Grant Reporting

Published Date: 3/18/2026

Notice

Summary

HRSA is updating how it collects info from groups funded by the Delta States Rural Development Network Grant Program, which helps fight heart disease, diabetes, stroke, and obesity in rural Delta communities. They want your thoughts on the changes before sending them to the budget office. If you’re involved or interested, get your comments in by May 18, 2026—this helps make sure the program runs smoothly and shows real health improvements.

Analyzed Economic Effects

2 provisions identified: 1 benefits, 1 costs, 0 mixed.

Higher annual reporting burden for grantees

If you are a Delta Program award recipient, HRSA estimates you will spend about 72.75 hours each year completing the performance measures and related tasks. HRSA reports 12 respondents with a combined total annual burden of 873 hours to account for training, coordination with network partners, and compiling data from different systems.

Race and ethnicity questions separated

HRSA will display race and ethnicity as two separate questions for current Delta Program recipients to reduce disruption in ongoing projects and to begin easing the program toward SPD-15 compliance. This change is intended to help keep reporting consistent while recipients adjust their data collection processes.
