Opportunity Summary:

The grant opportunity titled "Building Effective Health Information Systems Under PEPFAR" is a U.S. government public health funding notice released by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). It is designed to support work that strengthens health information systems in countries and programs supported by PEPFAR (the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief). In practical terms, the opportunity is aimed at improving how health data are collected, managed, analyzed, and used to guide HIV program planning, service delivery, monitoring, and overall decision-making.

This notice is issued as a continuation funding opportunity under CDC RFA GH15-153502CONT16, and the funding instrument is a Cooperative Agreement. A cooperative agreement generally means CDC expects to have substantial involvement in the funded activities, such as providing technical guidance, collaborating on implementation approaches, and helping ensure the work aligns with PEPFAR and CDC program priorities. The activity category is listed as Health, and the associated CFDA (Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance) number is 93.067, which is commonly associated with CDC global HIV/AIDS-related programming under PEPFAR.

The opportunity was posted on December 29, 2015, with both the original and current closing date listed as February 29, 2016. The listing indicates an expectation of four awards. The "award ceiling" is shown as 0, which typically indicates the ceiling amount is either not specified in the summary field, varies by recipient, is defined elsewhere in the full announcement, or is dependent on available appropriations and approved workplans rather than a single published cap.

Eligibility is summarized as "Others," with a note to consult the full announcement section titled "Additional Information on Eligibility" for the exact eligibility categories and any restrictions. That phrasing often signals that eligibility may be limited to specific entities (for example, existing recipients under a prior award, certain types of organizations, or organizations meeting particular partnership or in-country presence requirements), but the precise rules are not provided in the excerpt you shared.

Overall, the purpose of the opportunity is to build or enhance effective health information systems that support PEPFAR HIV program outcomes. That typically includes strengthening routine data systems, ensuring data quality, improving reporting and interoperability where appropriate, building workforce capacity in monitoring and evaluation and health informatics, and promoting consistent use of data for program improvement and accountability. The CDC’s role under a cooperative agreement framework usually emphasizes technical assistance and coordination to ensure systems and processes meet PEPFAR reporting needs and support sustainable public health impact.
