A Critical Shortage Facility is, in HRSA's words, "a public or private health care facility located in, designated as, or serving a Health Professional Shortage Area (HPSA)", a primary care or mental health one. Awards are competitive: HRSA gives preference by financial need, the nurse's specialty or type of facility, and the HPSA score.
