The NIHCM Foundation is now accepting letters of inquiry for the Investigator-Initiated Research Grant Program.
NIHCM Foundation supports innovative, independent, investigator-initiated research with a high potential to inform improvements to the United States health care system.
NIHCM Foundation wishes to support innovative investigator-initiated health services research that will advance the existing knowledge base in the areas of health care financing, delivery, management and/or policy. Studies must have strong potential to yield insights that can be used to have a positive impact on the U.S. health care system by improving efficiency, quality, access to care or equity. Studies involving direct patient care or clinical, bench-science research are not relevant for this solicitation.
Grants provide funding for:
- Projects that advance the evidence-base in areas such as health care financing, affordability, delivery, management and/or policy
Funding Information
- NIHCM is making a total of $1 million available for the combined 2024-2025 funding cycles for the research and journalism grant programs. Funding will be allocated across the two programs according to the merits of the proposals received. In all awards, they will be assessing the efficiency of the proposed budget relative to the expected impact and project scope. Awards made in prior years have been highly competitive on price and this focus will continue.
Eligibility Criteria
- They welcome applications from individual researchers as well as from all types of organizations and institutions, including both non-profit and for-profit entities. Multiple organizations may apply jointly, but one must be named as the principal organization and others will have a subcontract relationship with that organization. There is no limit on the number of project ideas that may be submitted by a given researcher, organization or academic department.
