Funding

This funding opportunity supports innovative multi-disciplinary and multi-level research designed to understand how optimizing patient-clinician communications and relationships affect health care outcomes in populations with health care disparities. This includes studies that evaluate the effects of telehealth communication.

This is a funding opportunity supporting research that investigates the effectiveness of school-based health centers as a health services care delivery model to address the needs of school-aged children from populations with health disparities. Areas of special interest include telehealth.

This funding opportunity supports research partnerships formed by academic and industrial investigators to accelerate the development and adoption of promising bioengineering tools and technologies that can address important biomedical problems. Awards will focus on supporting multidisciplinary teams that apply an integrative, quantitative bioengineering approach to developing technologies, including telemedicine.

This funding opportunity supports pilot projects to evaluate the effectiveness of therapeutic and service delivery interventions (e.g. telehealth) for the post-acute management of mental health conditions.

This funding opportunity seeks to support the initiation and building of the next generation of population-based cancer epidemiology cohorts to address specific knowledge gaps in cancer etiology and survivorship. Areas of feasible study include test measures related to healthcare delivery such as telehealth.

This funding opportunity is for groundbreaking research projects aimed at testing strategies to enhance the reach, efficiency, effectiveness, and quality of digital mental health interventions.

The AHRQ Patient-Centered Outcomes Research (PCOR) Mentored Clinical Scientist Career Development Award (K08) provides financial and research support for individuals with clinical doctoral degrees to engage in mentored research and didactic study in patient-centered outcomes research, including the development of telehealth solutions and other digital health care tools.

This grant provides funding to further develop affordable medical technologies, such as telehealth, that will help reduce disparities in access to healthcare and health outcomes among disadvantaged groups. The applicant should aim to address one of the following categories that can impact healthcare disparities: physical, knowledge, infrastructure, economic, and/or cultural.

This funding opportunity supports research that examines the impact of leveraging health information technology (health IT) to reduce disparities in access to and utilization of health care services, patient-clinician communication, and health outcomes for populations that experience health disparities in the U.S. Special areas of interest include the evaluation of telehealth policies on access to care, the impact of telehealth care delivery models on quality of care and interventions to address the challenges that can impact telehealth engagement and adherence to treatment plans.

The purpose of this funding opportunity is to support studies that will identify, develop, and/or test strategies for overcoming barriers to the adoption, adaptation, integration, scale-up, and sustainability of evidence-based interventions, practices, programs, tools, treatments, guidelines, and policies. Applications that focus on re-implementation of evidence-based health services (e.g., telehealth and telemedicine) that may have dropped off amidst the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic are encouraged.

Through this funding opportunity, the National Cancer Institute intends to accelerate the development of evidence-based cancer-related interventions that reflect the diversity of people, places, contexts, and settings in the United States. This funding opportunity will support research that tests the impact of cancer-related interventions on cancer-related outcomes across the cancer control continuum using a pragmatic trial study design. Interventions that leverage novel delivery modalities such as telehealth and interventions that can be delivered for populations in diverse locations such as rural areas are key areas of focus.

This funding opportunity is aimed at supporting small business concerns (SBCs) in the development of technologies to address health-related social needs (HRSN) impacting substance use disorders (SUD) other than alcohol use disorder.

This Notice of Special Interest seeks to support research on the real-world effectiveness of telehealth collaboration among health care providers, specifically provider-to-provider telehealth, to improve access to critical health expertise in remote communities. The research aims to advance health equity and access to care, investigate the effectiveness of provider-to-provider telehealth in managing rural populations' health, and develop implementation strategies in settings where clinical effectiveness is established.

This funding opportunity aims to fund innovative research focused on addressing health and well-being among individuals with disabilities, particularly at the intersections of race, ethnicity, and socioeconomic status.

This opportunity works to address barriers to cancer screening and preventive services in populations experiencing health disparities. Projects should include barriers and facilitators at various levels, such as patient, clinician, health care setting, and neighborhood/community, and may include telehealth implementation.
