Technical Assistance Program

The Idaho Health Facilities Authority has partnered with Mountain States Group through its Area Health Education Center (AHEC) to sponsor the Technical Assistance Program (TAP). Together we provide technical assistance for Idaho health care providers at an affordable price. This includes areas such as financial analysis, board development, organizational development, legal issues, community surveys, key informant interviews, marketing, and strategic planning facilitation for community health leaders.

The purpose and intent of the TAP is to help maintain stable health care services and financial viability in public or non-profit hospitals, clinics, health departments, nursing homes, and other health care providers.

Costs

Depending on your specific needs, costs can range from free to extremely competitive. In some instances, services can be provided free through existing grant related activities. In other instances, services can be subsidized by partner agencies (up to 60%) and are exceedingly affordable.

Eligibility

Idaho public or non-profit health care facilities including hospitals, nursing homes, and district health departments may qualify for free or subsidized services if they have the commitment of their organization, need for technical assistance, and the potential to continue financial stability and system operations.

A facility can apply for subsidized technical assistance by submitting a two page “Site Application” along with their past three year financial statements. The application is reviewed and a decision regarding the amount of the subsidy is made typically within a few days.
