This initiative will support innovative multidisciplinary collaborative research designed to investigate the effectiveness of MHCs in improving healthcare access and addressing the health care needs of populations that experience health disparities and whether they result in improved health outcomes and increased health equity. Projects across the lifespan including children (under 18 years), adults (18 – 64 years), and/or older adults (65 years and older) are encouraged. Proposed projects would be expected to evaluate existing strategies used by MHCs or develop new strategies to advance health equity using one or more of the following outcome measures: (1) optimal clinical health outcomes (e.g., blood pressure control, diabetes control), (2) optimal quality of care (e.g., adherence to evidence-based recommendations for preventive care, diagnosis and disease management), (3) access to care (e.g., comprehensiveness, continuity of care), (4) coordination of care (e.g., timely referrals for imaging and specialty care), (5) community services (e.g., medication assistance, partnerships with community organizations to address social determinants of health), and (6) utilization of health services (e.g., telehealth, urgent care/emergency department visits).
Research projects responsive to this NOSI can consist of impact evaluations, implementation studies, retrospective and prospective observational studies, mixed-methods studies, natural experiments, quasi-experimental studies, clinical trials (including cluster-randomized trials and pragmatic trials) and others to assess the impact of MHCs and to delineate aspects of MHCs that are particularly effective. Of particular interest are projects that include research collaborations across multiple MHC sites in different states and communities (e.g., rural and urban), and with different funding sources (e.g., philanthropy and federal or state government) and organizational affiliations (e.g., academic and non-academic) to bolster regional or national generalizability of study findings. Projects must include a focus on one or more populations that experience health disparities. Of specific interest are meritorious applications that focus on racial or ethnic minority populations and/or socioeconomically disadvantaged populations. The intersectionality of race or ethnicity and/or socioeconomically disadvantaged populations with rural populations, sexual and gender minority groups, or people with disabilities, is also a priority.
This notice applies to due dates on or after February 5, 2025, and subsequent receipt dates through November 17, 2027.
