Grant Overview
Readiness requirements for Tennessee nursing programs focus on documented faculty capacity to deliver healthcare navigation modules that align with the state's three-region Medicaid managed care structure. Programs must show that at least two full-time faculty hold active Tennessee licenses and have completed the state-approved navigation certification within the prior 24 months before submitting an application.
Infrastructure constraints appear most clearly in East Tennessee's Appalachian counties and the 16 counties designated as health professional shortage areas in the Mississippi Delta region. These areas lack dedicated care coordination staff; students trained under the initiative therefore fill immediate gaps by guiding patients through TennCare prior authorization and transportation assistance processes.
Proposals must include letters from each region's managed care organization confirming willingness to accept student navigators for supervised field placements. Budgets require separate line items for travel stipends capped at the state employee mileage rate and for electronic health record access fees charged by participating rural hospitals.
Tennessee's readiness criteria diverge from Kentucky and Arkansas because the state conditions funding on alignment with its existing three managed care organizations; programs proposing generic navigation training without these organization-specific attestations receive no further consideration.
