Funding posture

Rare NOFOs under a mega ceiling

Medicaid HCBS Grants pairs a mega SAM.gov ceiling ($1.0 million to $50.0 million) with a sparse Grants.gov trail (2 indexed rows). Large paper capacity, few public solicitations: watch the open flags on those scarce listings rather than expecting a steady NOFO cadence.

Assistance Listing text · HHS

Home and community-based services waiver grants enabling Medicaid beneficiaries to receive care in community settings.

Public-sector applicant lane · HHS

SAM.gov lists only government/tribal applicants for Medicaid HCBS Grants. This is a public-sector Assistance Listing corridor, not a general nonprofit or small-business open call.
