Opportunity Information: Apply for NAP AX 16 006
This funding opportunity from the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC) supports a single cooperative agreement to strengthen cyber threat information sharing across the Health Care and Public Health (HPH) sector. The core aim is to build up the capacity of an Information Sharing and Analysis Organization (ISAO) so it can operate as a central, trusted hub that exchanges cyber threat information in both directions: receiving actionable threat information from HPH stakeholders and federal partners, and rapidly distributing relevant alerts, indicators, and guidance back out to the sector. Alongside the information-sharing function, the award also emphasizes outreach and education so that hospitals, clinics, public health entities, and other HPH organizations not only receive threat information but also understand it and can take practical steps in response.
A major theme of the program is streamlining how cybersecurity threat information moves between HHS and the broader HPH ecosystem. Rather than HHS having to coordinate distribution across many separate recipients, ONC envisions HHS being able to send threat information to one primary entity, with that ISAO responsible for disseminating it broadly, equitably, and on a timely basis for the benefit of the entire sector. The cooperative agreement structure signals that ONC expects active involvement and coordination during the project period, not just a hands-off grant. The selected ISAO is also expected to expand and leverage capabilities that already exist within participating HHS offices, helping create a more robust and connected information-sharing environment for the whole sector.
The outputs funded under the award will often be tailored to specific types of cyber threats (for example, threat briefings, mitigation steps, and targeted awareness products). At the same time, ONC notes that it may choose to publish more general educational materials developed with grant funds on healthit.gov, other ONC-supported websites, or through collaboration with other ONC grantees, extending the reach of the work beyond the ISAO's direct channels. ONC also indicates that certain threat information may be shared with ASPR when broader public visibility is needed to address particular threats affecting health care delivery or public health operations.
Eligibility is intentionally broad, reflecting the reality that cybersecurity information sharing in health care requires participation from many kinds of organizations. Eligible applicants include local entities, public nonprofits, private nonprofits, and even private/for-profit organizations, as long as they are already providing outreach and technical assistance on cybersecurity threats or have existing cyber threat information sharing services. ONC specifically calls out three types of strong candidates: organizations already doing outreach and technical assistance related to cybersecurity; organizations that currently share cyber threat information within some portion of the HPH sector and want to expand their reach; and organizations that run information sharing services in another sector and want to extend those capabilities into the HPH space. The announcement also encourages collaboration, explicitly allowing (and encouraging) multiple organizations to team up and apply together under one application, recognizing that effective threat sharing depends on coordinated networks rather than isolated efforts.
Key administrative details frame this as a time-bound, competitive discretionary opportunity. The opportunity number is NAP AX 16 006, categorized under Health, with CFDA 93.893, and uses a cooperative agreement funding instrument. ONC anticipated making one award with a ceiling of $250,000.
