NIH has just issued a new R01 funding opportunity that may be of
interest. The proposal due date is November 15, 2011. (A brief
letter of intent is due on October 15th).

Economic Research Incentives for Efficient use of Preventive Services (R01)
(RFA-RM-11-012)
http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/rfa-files/RFA-RM-11-012.html
This FOA solicits R01 applications for economic research on the role
of incentive arrangements in promoting efficient use of preventive
services and interventions, specifically considering both costs and
health outcomes. The objective of the research program is to advance
general knowledge about how incentives can be structured to improve
both health and cost outcomes through more efficient use of
preventive services; it is not primarily to advance specific
knowledge about any particular preventive intervention or prevention
of any particular health condition. This FOA is a component of the
Common Fund initiative on Health Economics for Health Care Reform
(<http://nihroadmap.nih.gov/healtheconomics>http://nihroadmap.nih.gov/healtheconomics).

Please feel free to contact us if you are interested in this
opportunity, or in learning more about NIH propsals and grants
generally. We look forward to working with you.
