FOREWORD

Table of Contents


This is the annual summary report on all FY 1998 grants awarded by the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS). The purpose of the report is to provide an overview of the different grant programs administered by DHHS operating divisions.

The report has three parts: a summary of all grants awarded, a section on mandatory grant awards, and a section on discretionary grant awards. The mandatory grants include block, closed-ended, and open-ended entitlement grants. Grants awarded as cooperative agreements are included in the section on discretionary grants.

The summaries of grants information are generated from the Department’s Tracking Accountability in Government Grants System (TAGGS), which is composed of data submitted by the DHHS operating divisions’ (OPDIV) grants information systems. For various reasons, including the fact that some OPDIVs may award grants with funds appropriated for other OPDIVs, the amounts shown for each OPDIV will differ from the amounts shown in OPDIV Budget Requests.

In the health area, our Medicaid program, a jointly-funded Federal-State health insurance program, assists States in the provision of adequate medical care for low-income people, and includes the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP). Other health programs encompass biomedical research, training of biomedical research scientists and health professionals, support of health professional schools, development and delivery of health services, disease prevention and health promotion programs, and construction of research, educational and health facilities.

Our social service programs provide support to every group of Americans, including children, youth, families, and the elderly. Social service programs include temporary assistance to needy families, assistance to refugees, enforcement of child support payment orders, foster care and adoption, prevention of child abuse and neglect, Indian tribal services, and Head Start programs.

I. FY 1998 GENERAL SUMMARY

Table of Contents

The Department of Health and Human Services is comprised of twelve operating divisions (OPDIVs) and a Program Support Center (PSC). The OPDIVs are:

ACF - Administration for Children and Families

AHCPR - Agency for Health Care Policy and Research

AoA - Administration on Aging

ATSDR - Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry

CDC - Centers for Disease Control and Prevention

FDA - Food and Drug Administration

HCFA - Health Care Financing Administration

HRSA - Health Resources and Services Administration

IHS - Indian Health Service

NIH - National Institutes of Health

OS - Office of the Secretary

SAMHSA - Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration

All grants awarded by the OPDIVs, the PSC, and the DHHS regional offices are included in this report. Because CDC issued ATSDR awards, the data for ATSDR awards have been included in the figures for CDC throughout this report.

This report provides grant award information under three sections: the General Summary, Mandatory Grant Awards, and Discretionary Grant Awards. Grant awards are considered to be financial assistance that provides support or stimulation to accomplish a public purpose. Awards include grants and other agreements in the form of money, or property in lieu of money, to an eligible recipient. This report does not include technical assistance, which provides services instead of money; other assistance in the form of loans, loan guarantees, interest subsidies, or insurance; direct payments of any kind to individuals; or contracts which are required to be entered into and administered under procurement laws and regulations.














Notes on Methodology

Table of Contents


The data in this report reflect awards made during FY 1998. The data will not necessarily agree with the FY 1998 budget and accounting records (e.g., Medicaid’s accounting adjustments) for several reasons. First, in some instances the data for awarded grants reflect, in addition to current year funds, the reobligations of prior years’ funds. Second, costs of furnishing personnel in lieu of cash are included in the grants data, but are recorded as personnel service costs in accounting records. Third, grants jointly funded are included in accounting records, but are not included herein unless awards are made by DHHS programs.

The amounts set forth in this report for each OPDIV may also differ from the amounts shown in the OPDIVs’ Budget Requests ["Preliminary Budget Submission to DHHS," the "Justification of Budget Estimates to OMB," and the "Justification of Estimates for Appropriations Committees"]. Percentages used throughout the report may not add up to exactly 100 percent due to rounding.

The number of grants is a count of projects or programs receiving grant funds (projects with a zero or negative total awarded during the fiscal year are bypassed). Therefore, the number of grants is less than a count of grant actions, since some projects received supplemental awards or received grants relating to more than one grantee budget period within FY 1998. This report on grants does not include scholarships to individuals.

II. FY 1998 MANDATORY GRANT AWARDS


Table of Contents

FY 1998 TOTAL: $138,156,439,610

Mandatory Grant Awards by Grant Type

The DHHS mandatory grant awards comprise 87 percent of the total DHHS FY 1998 grant funds, but only nine percent of the total number of grant awards made in FY 1998. Mandatory grants are those that a Federal agency is required by statute to award if the recipient, usually a State, submits an acceptable State Plan or application, and meets the eligibility and compliance requirements of the statutory and regulatory provisions of the grant program. In the past, mandatory grants were sometimes referred to as "formula grants."

Mandatory grants include block grants, closed-ended grants, and open-ended entitlement grants.

III. FY 1998 DISCRETIONARY GRANT AWARDS


Table of Contents

FY 1998 TOTAL: $19,746,853,298
Discretionary Grant Awards by Grant Type
 

The DHHS discretionary grant awards comprise only 12 percent of the total DHHS FY 1998 grant funds, but they account for 92 percent of the total number of DHHS grant awards made in FY 1998. Discretionary grants are those that permit the Federal government, according to specific authorizing legislation, to exercise judgment, or "discretion," in selecting the applicant/recipient organization, through a competitive grant process. The types of activities commonly supported by discretionary grants include demonstration, research, training, service, and construction projects or programs. Discretionary grants are sometimes referred to as "project grants."

In this report, grants awarded as a cooperative agreement are included in the charts summarizing discretionary grant awards. A cooperative agreement is an award instrument of financial assistance where "substantial involvement" is anticipated between the DHHS awarding agency and the recipient during performance of the project or activity. This means that the recipient can expect Federal programmatic collaboration or participation in managing the award.

  • Discretionary Grants – account for 10.7 percent of the total DHHS FY 1998 grant funds, and 85.0 percent of the total number of DHHS FY 1998 grants.
  • Cooperative Agreements – account for only 1.5 percent of the total DHHS FY 1998 grant funds, and 7.0 percent of the total number of DHHS FY 1998 grants.
