§ 54.630 Eligible recipients.
(a) Rural health care provider site--individual and consortium. Under
the Healthcare Connect Fund, an eligible rural health care provider may
receive universal service support by applying individually or through a
consortium. For purposes of the Healthcare Connect Fund, a "consortium"
is a group of two or more health care provider sites that request
support through a single application. Consortia may include health care
providers who are not eligible for support under the Healthcare Connect
Fund, but such health care providers cannot receive support for their
expenses and must participate pursuant to the cost allocation
guidelines in § 54.639(d).
(b) Limitation on participation of non-rural health care provider sites
in a consortium. An eligible non-rural health care provider site may
receive universal service support only as part of a consortium that
includes more than 50 percent eligible rural health care provider
sites.
(c) Limitation on large non-rural hospitals. Each eligible non-rural
public or non-profit hospital site with 400 or more licensed patient
beds may receive no more than $30,000 per year in Healthcare Connect
Fund support for eligible recurring charges and no more than $70,000 in
Healthcare Connect Fund support every 5 years for eligible nonrecurring
charges, exclusive in both cases of costs shared by the network.
