Deadline to use Phase 7 Provider Relief Fund reporting approaches

All dentists who received funds during the seventh phase of the Provider Relief Fund have until June 30 to use the money. 

The seventh Provider Relief Fund Reporting Period will open July 1 and remain open through Sept. 30 at 11:59 p.m. EST. Those who received one or more Provider Relief Fund and/or American Rescue Plan Rural payments surpassing $10,000 in the aggregate from Jan. 1 to June 30, 2023, are required to report on their use of funds to the PRF Reporting Portal. 

Originally established in 2020 by the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act, the Provider Relief Fund allowed dental providers to apply for payments for health care-related expenses or lost revenues due to the COVID-19 pandemic. 

For more information on appropriate uses of the payments, review the Allowable Expenses webpage.
