Robert Wood Johnson Foundation Changes in Health Care Financing and Organization (HCFO): grant funding opportunities

Robert Wood Johnson Foundation Changes in Health Care Financing and Organization (HCFO):

Changes in Health Care Financing and Organization supports policy analysis, research, evaluation and demonstration projects that provide policy leaders timely information on health care policy and financing issues. Supported projects include:

*Examining significant issues and interventions related to health care financing and organization and their effects on health care costs, quality and access
*Exploring major new ways to finance and organize health care to improve access to more affordable and higher quality health services

Awards are available for small grants (projects requiring $100,000 or less and projected to take 12 months or less) and large grants (projects requiring more than $100,000 and/or projected to take longer than 12 months).

Researchers, as well as practitioners and public and private policy-makers working with researchers, are eligible to apply. Multidisciplinary teams and researchers who are just beginning their careers-perhaps teaming with a more senior researcher to develop the
analytic approach-are especially encouraged to apply.

Proposal Deadline-Open: Grants are awarded on a rolling basis; proposals may be submitted at any time.

The complete call for proposals is available on the Foundation's Web site at www.rwif.org/cfp/hcfo and the program's Web site at www.hcfo.net.
