Patient Care Coordination Demonstration Project | Apply Online

Opportunity Summary:

The Patient Care Coordination Demonstration Project (Funding Opportunity Number RFA DP07 70301SUPP10) was a CDC supplemental funding opportunity designed to help existing National Breast and Cervical Cancer Early Detection Program (NBCCEDP) grantees test how well proven patient navigation and care coordination approaches could be expanded beyond their traditional screening-focused use. Historically, NBCCEDP programs have used patient navigators, typically operating under the guidance of case managers, to reduce practical barriers that keep eligible women from getting timely breast and cervical cancer screening. This project’s core idea was that these navigation and coordination roles are valuable not only for cancer screening, but can be adapted to serve a broader set of patients and services as the health care system shifts toward more integrated primary and preventive care.

The opportunity was framed around upcoming health system changes associated with the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA). As more low-income women gained coverage through expanding Medicaid programs and as care delivery increasingly moved into organized primary care settings, the CDC wanted grantees to explore how cancer-related patient care coordination models could transition into, or be integrated with, settings like Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) and other community health systems. In practical terms, the demonstration was meant to help programs prepare for a future in which patients might access preventive services through broader primary care networks rather than through stand-alone screening programs, and where coordinated referrals, follow-up, and barrier reduction would still be necessary to ensure people actually receive recommended services.

Administratively, the award mechanism was a cooperative agreement, meaning CDC expected to have a substantial programmatic role rather than simply issuing funds with minimal involvement. The funding activity category was health, with an estimated total funding amount of $3,000,000 and an anticipated 12 awards. No cost sharing or matching requirement was listed. Award ceiling and floor were both shown as $0 in the source data, which typically indicates that specific award size ranges were not expressed in those fields rather than implying no funding would be provided.

Eligibility was limited and specific: applicants had to be current grantees funded under the NBCCEDP component of FOA DP07-703 (National Cancer Prevention and Control Program). The announcement also allowed submission by a “bona fide agent” acting on behalf of a state or local government, provided the applicant could supply formal documentation (a letter from the relevant state or local government) confirming that status. This is a common structure for state-based public health programs where an authorized entity may apply and administer funds on the state’s behalf.

Key dates indicate this was a time-limited, archived opportunity. It was posted and created on July 22, 2010, with an original and current closing date of August 23, 2010, and an archive date of September 22, 2010. The CFDA number associated with the opportunity was 93.283, and the administering agency was the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
