Description
- Purpose. The purpose of this Funding Opportunity (FOA) is
to support Research Demonstration and Dissemination (R18) grant
applications from organizations that will implement safe practice
interventions that demonstrate evidence of reducing or eliminating
medical errors, risks, hazards, and harms associated with the process
of health care. These 24 month implementation projects will inform
AHRQ, providers, patients, payers, policy makers, and the public about
how safe practice interventions can be successfully implemented in
diverse health care settings and lead to safer and better health care
for all Americans. This FOA follows the release of an earlier FOA in
2005 that resulted in the release of successful implementation projects
and toolkits available to the public. Background information on the
earlier FOA can be found at
http://grants1.nih.gov/grants/guide/FOA-files/FOA-HS-05-012.html.
Examples of and Information on projects from the initial Partnerships
in Implementing Patient Safety FOA can be found at
http://www.ahrq.gov/qual/pips/. Mechanism of Support. This FOA will
utilize the AHRQ Research Demonstration and Dissemination Projects
(R18) award mechanism. The individual researcher sponsored by each
organizational grantee will be solely responsible for planning,
directing, and executing his or her proposed projects. Funds Available
and Anticipated Number of Awards. Awards issued under this FOA are
contingent upon the availability of funds and the submission of a
sufficient number of meritorious applications. Because the nature and
scope of the proposed research will vary from application to
application, it is anticipated that the size and duration of each award
will also vary. The total amount awarded and the number of awards will
depend upon the number, quality, duration, and costs of the
applications received.
