Agency for Health Care Research and Quality

Description

The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) hereby notifies grantees holding active AHRQ awards that were funded under the PCOR FOAs, (see referenced FOAs under: Part 1. Overview Information, Activity Code), that funds are available for competitive revisions to meet immediate needs to help address timely health system and healthcare professional response to the COVID-19 public health crisis. This FOA does not include grants that were awarded using AHRQ Health Service Research (HSR) dollars (please see FOA number PA-20-070, which is directed toward those grants). It is expected that competitive revision supplement requests will capitalize on the expertise of grant personnel and the institutional environment to expand the specific aims of the on-going research to develop high-impact new knowledge concerning COVID-19. The proposed projects must support dissemination of comparative clinical effectiveness research findings or the training of researchers in the methods used to conduct such research. Funding will be available in Fiscal Year 2020.
