Applicants Eligible for this Grant: For profit organizations other than small businesses
Additional Information on Eligibility: Other Eligible Applicants include the following: In 2006, AHRQ awarded five research infrastructure planning (P20) grants under RFA-HS-05-010. Support was provided for planning activities related to the development of a health services research infrastructure in institutions located within selected states which had not historically received significant health services research funding from the Agency. This announcement is a competitive continuation that extends these activities and only the grantees funded under the above referenced FOA are eligible to apply. The purpose of these awards is to allow these grantees to build on their achievements from the original P20 grant, to refine, expand, and implement the plans developed during the first phase, and to conduct two to three health services research projects. Because these funded recipients have conducted the initial planning and development activities to enable them to build on the existing work and because continuity in the research is necessary, this will be a limited competition. For-profit or foreign organizations may only participate in the grant projects as members of consortia or as subcontractors.
Grant Description: Purpose. This FOA is the second phase of a research infrastructure program for grantees that were awarded planning grants (P20s) under RFA-HS-05-010 in 2006 (see http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/rfa-files/RFA-HS-05-010.html). Under this original program, five grants were funded for planning activities related to the development of health services research infrastructure within selected states that historically had received limited health services research funding from AHRQ. This FOA is a competitive continuation that extends these activities. Only the original five grantees supported under the above referenced RFA are eligible to apply in response to this FOA. The purpose of this second phase is to allow these grantees to build on their achievements from the original P20 grant, to refine, expand, and implement the plans developed during the first phase, and to conduct two to three health services research projects. At least one of these projects must be a primary, as opposed to a pilot, research project. It is believed that this additional funding will ensure that the health services research infrastructure is sufficiently developed to allow for sustainability by the end of the funding.
