Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) updated its Provider Relief Fund (PRF) FAQs on May 5 to include additional reporting periods, as well as confirming June 30, 2023 as the end date by which COVID-related lost revenues must be incurred for providers to be able to apply their PRF and ARP Rural Funds to them. Here is a LeadingAge resource that provides the updated reporting timelines.

Providers are reminded of the following upcoming key dates:

• May 15 – June 2, 2023: Reporting Portal open for submitting late reports from Reporting Period 4 for those providers who made such a request and were approved.
• June 30, 2022: This is the final date for which COVID-related lost revenues can be incurred.
• July 1, 2023 – Reporting Period 5: Covers PRF and ARP Rural funds received between January 1 – June 30, 2022. These providers can use these funds for COVID-related expenses incurred between January 1, 2020  and June 30, 2023. Reporting will begin on July 1, 2023.
• Final Repayment Notices: Providers who receive these notices must either return funds or submit a request for a Decision Review within 60 days of receiving the letter. A Decision Review is the final appeal opportunity for providers.
