Grant Description

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).
