Opportunity Summary:
The National Hemophilia Program Coordinating Center (NHPCC) grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number HRSA-15-087) is a Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) discretionary funding announcement that supports a single, national coordinating center under a cooperative agreement. The overall intent is to strengthen the National Hereditary Blood Disorders Program by creating a hub that helps Regional Hemophilia Networks (RHNs) work together as an integrated, collaborative system. The emphasis is on improving comprehensive, high-quality care for people living with hemophilia and other related bleeding or clotting disorders, including conditions such as thrombophilia, with a strong focus on measurable improvements in care processes and patient outcomes.
The coordinating center is expected to lead and support quality improvement (QI) work across the regional networks. Rather than directly replacing regional efforts, the NHPCC serves as the organizer and enabler that helps RHNs select, implement, and sustain QI activities that raise the standard of care. A key theme is creating consistency across regions: the center is meant to help develop more uniform practices and shared standards of care so that patients and families can expect more comparable services regardless of where they live. Alongside standardization, the coordinating center is expected to promote accessibility for all patients and families, help reduce the cost of care where possible through better-coordinated and more efficient approaches, and broadly disseminate reliable information and service models related to bleeding and clotting disorders.
Another central role of the NHPCC is to identify, prioritize, and address major issues affecting access and quality of hemophilia-related services, particularly for underserved populations. This is framed as outreach work done in conjunction with key stakeholders, meaning the coordinating center should not operate in isolation. Instead, it should engage partners across the hemophilia community and public health landscape to pinpoint gaps (geographic, socioeconomic, cultural, or systemic) and help the regional networks respond in ways that expand reach and reduce disparities.
The opportunity also places explicit responsibility on training and workforce support. The coordinating center is expected to provide RHNs with access to training that helps them improve care and services, including practical support around recruiting and retaining skilled staff. In addition, the NHPCC is expected to help incorporate genetics and public health principles into the hemophilia program, reflecting the reality that hereditary blood disorders require both clinical expertise and population-focused strategies such as surveillance, prevention, education, and coordinated care planning.
From an administrative standpoint, this funding opportunity was posted on December 23, 2014, with an application closing date of February 23, 2015, and later archived on April 24, 2015. HRSA anticipated making one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $800,000. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement. Eligibility is broad under 42 CFR 51a.3(a), allowing any public or private entity to apply, including Indian tribes and tribal organizations (as defined at 25 U.S.C. 450b). Faith-based and community-based organizations are also eligible, indicating HRSA intended to allow a wide range of capable institutions to compete to serve as the national coordinating body.
For applicants or interested parties who needed access assistance, HRSA listed its Grants Application Center as the point of contact, along with contact information for Kathryn McLaughlin (KMcLaughlin@hrsa.gov) at HRSA.
