2025 Housing Support Provider Micro Investments
Geographic requirements:
Applicants must operate and be headquartered in Nevada.
Eligibility Requirements:
Candidates must legally operate a Nevada based 501(C)(3) organization, or be an educational institution, municipality, or a Nevada Medicaid provider in good standing.
Please note: Organizations do not have to be a Nevada Medicaid-enrolled provider in order to provide the Housing Supports & Services. The SilverSummit Community Investment Program funding can serve Nevadans in all counties.
The investments are for housing support providers to create capacity in preparation for the Housing Supports & Services benefit. The ultimate goal is that more people are served. Funds do not have to be used explicitly to serve SilverSummit Members.
SilverSummit Healthplan will not consider Investments for:
- Individuals
- Political action committees, candidates, causes or lobbying
- Labor, alumni, or fraternal groups
- Medicaid providers currently under investigation by the Special Investigations Unit (SIU)
- Funding programs/services outside of Nevada
- Medicaid-covered benefits and services
Investment Priority
This community investment funding cycle is solely to support the transition to the State of Nevada’s In Lieu of Services benefits, Housing Supports & Services benefit.
Community investment dollars may not be used to directly provide covered services. These funds are meant to support infrastructure and readiness—not to reimburse or deliver the benefit itself.
All proposals will be reviewed closely to ensure that applications are solely for the purposes of implementing Housing Supports & Services. There will be no exceptions.
Eligible use of funds:
These funds are intended to strengthen infrastructure and expand service capacity by funding:
- Hiring or onboarding staff directly tied to Housing Supports & Services delivery
- Staff training and agency development, including professional development opportunities related to Housing Supports & Services delivery and managed care participation (e.g. Medicaid billing, case management, or housing navigation)
- Technology needs, including computers and software
- System development for Medicaid billing readiness, including tools like electronic medical records (EMRs), data tracking systems, care coordination platforms, and related user or licensing fees (e.g., HMIS).
- Consulting or system modification support, such as hiring a billing expert to assist with implementation and compliance
- Outreach materials or program supplies directly supporting Housing Supports & Services
Ineligible use of funds:
To ensure compliance and alignment with program goals, the following expenses are not allowed:
- Any services that the benefit reimburses (Medicaid-covered benefits)
- General administrative overhead or non-program-specific operating costs
