What Can I Apply My ARPA Funding Towards?

Surge Capacity Preparedness

In the midst of a crisis, preparation is key. Funding may be used to ensure your facility has the equipment and capacity you need to respond to surges and keep your workers safe. Emergency preparedness equipment includes mobile morgue systems, portable decedent cooling systems, emergency response vehicles, and more.

Capital Expenditures

Funding may be used for the construction of new facilities as well as capital investments within those facilities to meet operational needs. This includes large equipment, cold storage units, racking systems, and more. For all capital expenditures that total less than $1 million, no written justification is required.

PPE and Consumable Products

In response to employees performing essential work during a public health emergency, funding may be used for products that assist in the safety of staff members. These items include personal protective equipment; cleaning, sanitizing and disinfecting supplies; lab safety equipment; body bags; and more.

Payroll Costs and Staffing

Funding may be used to cover payroll and benefits for employees of public health. According to the US Treasury, this includes laboratory technicians, medical examiners, morgue staff, and other support services essential for patient care. These funds will be used for the portion of the employee’s time spent responding to COVID-19.

Metropolitan cities (population greater than 50,000) can request funds through the US Treasury Submission Portal and will need a valid DUNS number, an active SAM registration, and payment information – including Entity Identification Number (EIN), name, and contact information; name and title of authorized representative of the entity; and financial institution information.
