Opportunity Summary:
This CDC funding opportunity, titled "Improving the Translation of the Evidence Based Recommendation of Client Reminder/Recall for Childhood Immunization (U01)," is a discretionary cooperative agreement designed to help move a proven public health strategy into routine use in real-world private healthcare settings. The main focus is on client reminder/recall systems, meaning structured approaches that remind families when a child is due for vaccines (reminder) and actively contact families when a child is overdue (recall). While reminder/recall has strong evidence behind it as a way to raise vaccination rates, this award is specifically aimed at speeding up the translation of that evidence into widespread, practical implementation among private providers who deliver childhood immunizations.
The core purpose of the announcement is implementation-oriented: it is not simply asking whether reminder/recall works, but how to get it adopted, integrated, and sustained in everyday clinical workflows in the private sector so that childhood immunization coverage improves. This typically implies activities like identifying operational barriers (for example, staffing, costs, workflow disruptions, data quality issues, or patient contact information problems), testing practical implementation strategies, and developing models that private practices can realistically maintain. The emphasis on "translation of the evidence based recommendation" signals that CDC is trying to bridge the common gap between research findings and routine practice by supporting applied work that demonstrates how private providers can use reminder/recall effectively at scale.
Funding is structured as a single cooperative agreement award, meaning CDC anticipates being substantially involved in the project beyond what happens in a standard grant. The announcement projected approximately $300,000 available in fiscal year 2010 for one award, with an overall estimated total funding amount of $900,000. The award ceiling is listed as $300,000 and the award floor is $0, which generally means budgets could vary but are capped at that top amount per budget period, with the larger total figure suggesting potential multi-year support contingent on performance and availability of funds. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, reducing the financial barrier for applicants.
The opportunity is open eligibility ("unrestricted"), meaning it is broadly available to many entity types, subject to any specific clarifications in the full text of the announcement. The funding activity category is health, and the CFDA listing associated with it is 93.185 (Immunization Research, Demonstration, Public Information and Education, Training and Clinical Skills Improvement Projects), which reflects CDCs immunization program portfolio and confirms that the work aligns with immunization systems improvement and applied public health practice.
Key administrative details include the funding opportunity number RFA-IP-10-004, with the announcement posted and created on March 16, 2010. The application closing date was April 26, 2010, and the archive date was May 26, 2010. The estimated funding date was September 2010. Applicants were directed to the full announcement on Grants.gov for complete requirements, program expectations, and application instructions. For technical difficulty accessing the announcement, CDCs Procurement and Grants Office (Technical and Information Management Section) provided a contact phone number (770-488-2700) and indicated a general email contact, underscoring that the official, detailed guidance would be in the full FOA document rather than in the summary listing.
