On Oct. 1, 2020, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) announced the next tranche of CARES Act provider relief fund payments. As we have addressed in previous law bulletins, HHS has $175 billion in funds for distribution from the authorizing CARES Act and Health Care Enhancements Act legislation enacted in Spring 2020. HHS said on Oct. 1 that it has issued over $100 billion of these funds to date.

HHS will make payments totaling $20 billion in this third general distribution. This phase is for providers that have already received Provider Relief Fund payments, and also for previously ineligible providers, including new providers that opened health care facilities in the first quarter of 2020. Behavioral health care providers are also eligible recipients in this phase.
