Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "Supporting and Maintaining the Surveillance System for Chronic Kidney Disease in the United States" (Funding Opportunity Number CDC RFA DP16-1604) is a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) cooperative agreement focused on sustaining and strengthening the national Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) Surveillance System. The core purpose is to continue prior surveillance work so the United States can reliably track how common CKD is, how it changes over time, and how CKD-related risk factors and outcomes are trending. A central emphasis is on using surveillance data to monitor and assess progress toward Healthy People 2020 objectives that relate to kidney health and prevention, meaning the funded work is expected to support public health measurement and accountability rather than direct clinical care.
In practical terms, the award supports ongoing development, maintenance, and improvement of the CKD Surveillance System, which functions as a public health monitoring platform that compiles and analyzes data to describe CKD burden and trends nationwide. This includes keeping the system operational and up to date, improving how data are presented and interpreted, and ensuring the surveillance outputs remain useful for evaluating risk factors over time. The intent is to provide decision-ready information for public health agencies, researchers, and policymakers who need consistent, longitudinal indicators about CKD and its drivers.
The opportunity is administered by HHS-CDC-NCCDPHP and is categorized as discretionary funding under the health activity area (CFDA 93.833). The funding mechanism is a cooperative agreement, which typically means the CDC expects to have substantial involvement during the project period, such as collaborating on priorities, methods, deliverables, and dissemination of findings, rather than simply issuing a grant with minimal federal interaction. The maximum award amount listed is $700,000 (award ceiling), and the CDC anticipated making about 3 awards under this announcement.
Eligibility is broad and includes multiple types of applicants across the public, private, academic, nonprofit, and tribal sectors. Eligible entities include state, county, city/township, and special district governments; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education; private institutions of higher education; federally recognized Native American tribal governments and certain tribal organizations; nonprofits with or without 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education in those nonprofit categories as specified); for-profit organizations other than small businesses; small businesses; and other applicants as allowed under the additional eligibility language referenced in the announcement. This wide eligibility suggests the CDC was open to proposals from organizations with strong capabilities in surveillance, epidemiology, data systems, and population health analytics.
Key administrative dates in the posting indicate it was created and posted on December 11, 2015, with an original and current closing date of February 29, 2016. Overall, the opportunity centers on keeping a national CKD surveillance infrastructure robust and relevant, so trends in CKD burden, associated risk factors, and progress toward Healthy People 2020 targets can be tracked consistently and used to guide public health action.
