Grant Description
Grants to USA nonprofit and for-profit organizations, IHE hospitals, and government agencies for conferences and meetings related to improving health outcomes through patient-centered care. Applicants are required to submit a letter of intent prior to a full application. There are three special areas of interest: consideration of the full range of outcomes data, intellectual and developmental disabilities, and maternal morbidity and mortality.

Through this award, PCORI seeks to fund projects designed by organizations and communities to hold multi-stakeholder convenings, meetings, and conferences that include a combination of patients, caregivers, researchers, clinicians, purchasers, payers, health system leaders, and/or other stakeholders. PCORI is receptive to applications encompassing a wide range of research support project topics. These convenings must have a focus on, and commitment to, supporting collaboration around PCOR/CER.

Convenings supported under this funding opportunity should be designed with the active collaboration and partnership of patients, community groups, and/or other stakeholder organizations. Projects should bring together diverse stakeholders around a central focus or shared priority that unifies stakeholders (e.g., geography, health condition, population) to explore issues related to PCOR/CER or communicate PCORI-funded research findings to targeted end-user audiences.

Potential Convening Focus Areas:

All convenings, regardless of topic, should include one or more of the following priority or focus areas:

  • Facilitating Discussion Around Development of Research Topics, Questions, and Engagement Plans for Patient-Centered Outcomes Research
  • Sharing Engagement Methods and Fostering Partnerships
  • Dissemination of Research Findings

More information about these focus areas can be found at https://www.pcori.org/sites/default/files/PCORI-engagement-award-SCS-PFA-april-2023-cycle.pdf#page=10
