Opportunity Summary:

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), through its Procurement and Grants Office, released a discretionary funding opportunity titled "Evaluation of Offering and Documenting Influenza Vaccination for Nursing Home Residents (U01)" (Funding Opportunity Number RFA-IP-10-001). It was offered as a cooperative agreement, meaning the CDC expected to have substantial involvement with the recipient during the project rather than simply issuing a grant with minimal federal interaction. The program sits within the health funding activity area and is tied to CFDA 93.185, which covers immunization research, demonstrations, public information and education, and related training and clinical skills improvement efforts.

The main goal of the opportunity was to study how nursing homes actually offer influenza vaccination to residents and how those vaccinations are documented in routine facility records and resident assessment systems. The FOA specifically emphasized mapping out the real-world processes and procedures used in nursing homes, identifying where variation exists, and understanding whether race affects how vaccination is offered or recorded. In addition to describing workflows, the project was intended to evaluate how accurate two key items are when reported on resident assessments: (1) influenza vaccination status and (2) resident race. In practical terms, the work would compare what is recorded on assessments to more reliable source information (for example, primary documentation or other verification methods) to judge the validity of those reported data elements.

Funding for fiscal year 2010 was projected at about $300,000 to support one to two awards, with an estimated total funding amount of $600,000 across awards. The award ceiling was listed at $300,000, and there was no stated award floor. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, which lowered the barrier for applicants that might not have been able to contribute additional non-federal funds.

Eligibility was described as unrestricted, meaning applications were open to any type of entity as long as it met any additional clarifications included in the full announcement. The opportunity was posted on March 15, 2010, with a closing date of April 26, 2010, and an archive date of May 26, 2010. For help accessing the full announcement, the CDC Procurement and Grants Office Technical Information and Management Section (TIMS) was listed as the point of contact by phone at 770-488-2700.
