Another update was posted today. a) Here is the direct link to the updated RFA (warning – PDF) .. b) Here are the addenda (#1,2,3) – just 4 pages – so you don’t have to download the whole RFA again. Now let’s parse the recent changes: Section IIThe Applicant must be a 501(c)(3) or 501(c)(4) non-profit organization. The type of501(c)(3) or 501(c)(4) non-profit must be one of the following entity types: Community-Based organizations (CBO), Independent Practice Associations (IPAs), Health Homes,Behavioral Health Collaboratives, Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs), orformer/current Delivery System Reform Incentive Payment (DSRIP) PerformingProvider Systems.Section IIIEnsure that the SCN follows the requirements for the governing bodies of 501(c)(3) or501(c)(4) organizations (as appropriate or analogous); Making it clear that both kinds of nonprofits can participate.  What’s the difference, you ask?  Here you go: 501(c)(3) organizations are charitable, religious, educational, scientific, or literary entities. Donations to these organizations are tax-deductible for the donor. They cannot engage in political campaigns and can only do a limited amount of lobbying. 501(c)(4) organizations are social welfare groups that can engage in more political activity and lobbying than 501(c)(3) entities. Donations to 501(c)(4) organizations are not tax-deductible for the donor.
