Behavioral Interventions to Address Multiple Chronic Health
Conditions in Primary Care (R01)
(PA-12-024)
http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/pa-files/PA-12-024.html
This funding opportunity announcement (FOA) seeks Research Project
Grant (R01) applications that propose to use a common conceptual
model to develop behavioral interventions to modify health behaviors
and improve health outcomes in patients with comorbid chronic
diseases and health conditions. Specifically, this FOA will support
research in primary care that uses a multi-disease care management
approach to behavioral interventions with high potential impact to
improve patient-level health outcomes for individuals with three or
more chronic health conditions. The proposed approach must modify
behaviors using a common approach rather than administering a
distinct intervention for each targeted behavior and/or condition.
Diseases and health conditions can include, but are not limited to:
mental health disorders (e.g., depression), diabetes, smoking,
obesity, chronic pain, alcohol and substance abuse and dependence,
chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder, cancer and hypertension.
Please feel free to contact us if you are interested in this
competition, or in learning more about NIH proopsals and grants
generally. We look forward to working with you.
