For more than 50 years, Title X family planning sites have played a critical role in ensuring access to a broad range of family planning and related preventive health services for millions of low-income or uninsured individuals and others. The global COVID-19 pandemic accelerated the use of telehealth as a modality for quality service delivery in healthcare safety-net settings. Within the Title X program, many Title X service delivery grantees, subrecipients, and service sites pivoted quickly to provide a wide array of family planning services using telehealth delivery modes. Feedback received from clients, providers, and grantees indicated that telehealth is a viable key modality for service delivery of some Title X services, and that using telehealth may serve as a tool to mitigate access barriers to quality family planning services for clients, especially for vulnerable and hard-to-reach populations. This opportunity will be open only to applicants who are submitting applications to PA-FPH-22-001 “Title X family Planning Service Grants” to request one-time funds to expand and enhance the telehealth infrastructure and capacity of their service delivery networks. Submitting an application under PA-FPH-22-002 will have no effect on the scoring of an application under PA-FPH-22-001.
