The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) under the American Recovery & Reinvestment Act of 2009 ("Recovery Act" or "ARRA"), Public Law 111-5, invites Exploratory/Developmental grant (R24) applications from organizations that propose to increase the capacity of high quality epidemiologic and comparative effectiveness research that will inform the health system of the future in its ability to care for people of all backgrounds with multiple chronic illnesses.

Mechanisms to build infrastructure include building or enhancing partnerships, datasets and methodologies that will improve the capacity to study, and the quality of studies, of patients with multiple chronic illnesses (referred to as Complex Patients).

There are two main objectives for this Funding Opportunity Announcement:

The development of comparative effectiveness research infrastructure.
The performance of a related specific research project to demonstrate the potential of the new infrastructure.
1. Develop infrastructure to facilitate the performance of comparative effectiveness research. Both data set development and research methods development are included in this Funding Opportunity Announcement’s consideration of infrastructure. Only one is required in an application:
A. Create or expand data sets to be used for research purposes.
B. Develop and validate methods to improve the analytic methods for the study of important questions related to the management of complex patients.

2. Performance of a specific research project. The research must take advantage of the specific methodological or other substantive thrust(s) of the infrastructure development being supported by the program.

AHRQ anticipates awarding 12 grants; the total amount expected to be awarded is $12,000,000. The project period duration is limited to two years.
