Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "Population based surveillance for Deep Vein Thrombosis and Pulmonary Embolism" (Funding Opportunity Number CDC RFA DD10 1016) was issued by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention as a discretionary cooperative agreement in the health category. Its core aim was to fund the development and evaluation of pilot, population-based surveillance programs focused on deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE). Because diagnosing and managing DVT and PE can be clinically complex and often involves multiple care settings, the CDC emphasized the need to test practical surveillance models and methods that can produce effective, valid estimates of the true public health burden of these conditions in the United States. In other words, the program was designed to move beyond isolated hospital counts or limited datasets and instead explore ways to measure DVT and PE incidence and impact more reliably at the population level.
The CDC planned to support a small number of awards, with an expected total of three funded projects. The total estimated funding across all awards was listed as $1,800,000, with individual awards anticipated to range from a floor of $200,000 to a ceiling of $400,000. No cost sharing or matching requirement was indicated, meaning applicants were not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving an award. The opportunity was posted on March 26, 2010, and closed on May 11, 2010, with an archive date of June 10, 2010.
Eligibility was broad and included many types of organizations that could plausibly run or coordinate surveillance activities and access relevant clinical and administrative data. Eligible applicants included nonprofits with or without 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education in the nonprofit category wording), for-profit organizations (other than small businesses), small/minority/women-owned businesses, universities and colleges, research institutions, hospitals, community-based and faith-based organizations, and a wide range of governmental and tribal entities. Eligible governmental applicants included state and local governments and their bona fide agents, along with U.S. territories and freely associated states as listed in the announcement. Tribal eligibility extended to federally or state recognized American Indian/Alaska Native tribal governments, tribally designated organizations, Alaska Native health corporations, urban Indian health organizations, and tribal epidemiology centers. The announcement also highlighted the option for a "bona fide agent" to apply on behalf of a state or local government, but required formal documentation in the form of a letter from the relevant government confirming that status.
Administratively, the opportunity was associated with CFDA number 93.184 (Disabilities Prevention). The CDC framed the work as pilot development and evaluation, signaling an expectation that awardees would not only implement surveillance approaches but also assess how well those approaches work, including their feasibility, validity, and potential for broader use. The implicit objective was to identify surveillance strategies that could better capture DVT and PE events across healthcare systems, improve consistency in case identification, and generate more credible burden estimates that public health agencies can use for planning, prevention, and resource allocation.
For applicants or stakeholders who needed assistance accessing the full announcement, the CDC provided a point of contact through the CDC Procurement and Grants Office, including a phone number (770-488-2700) and email (pgotim@cdc.gov).
