Leveraging Existing Health Care Networks to Transform Effectiveness Research (U19)
|
|
Description
|
Total Grant Amounts: A total project period of up to three years may be requested for a maximum of $9,000,000 total costs over a three-year project period.
The purpose of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to develop and test infrastructure to conduct mental health services and effectiveness research across large integrated health care systems, leading to the creation of a Mental Health Research Network across integrated health care delivery systems (MHRN). The MHRN would be capable of identifying thousands of suitable case and control subjects for basic and applied investigations of mental illness in practice settings. This initiative will allow for the initial development of a collaborative mental health effectiveness research platform among health care provider organizations that link primary, specialty, ambulatory, and other care settings; have access to large, stable, and diverse patient populations; are able to take advantage of existing integrated databases; and can conduct efficient large-scale effectiveness studies testing treatment, preventive, and services interventions to improve the mental health of large patient populations. This initiative will also facilitate increased research collaboration between health care provider organizations and researchers affiliated with other academic institutions, as well as federal and state agencies. For the purposes of this announcement, “integrated health care systems” and “health care provider organizations” refer to large health care delivery systems that can provide both general medical and mental health care services to tens of thousands of covered lives.
The ultimate purpose of the research funded by NIMH is to improve the impact of research on the public mental health of the US population. Therefore, it is appropriate that studies funded by this FOA focus on mental disorders of significant burden of disease across large populations. However, because of the potential to access millions of subjects, the MHRN may also be well suited for conducting research on less common disorders.
