Opportunity Information: Apply for CDC RFA DD21 2101
The grant opportunity titled "Advancing Population-Based Surveillance of Birth Defects," referenced as NOFO #CDC-RFA-DD21-2101, invites applications for cooperative agreements aimed at enhancing existing birth defects surveillance programs. The goal is to effectively address emerging threats to maternal and child health, tackle health disparities, and improve health outcomes in affected populations.
The initiative focuses on three main areas:
1. **Improving Surveillance Capacity**: This includes the use of electronic health records and interoperability to enhance birth defects surveillance. 2. **Enhancing Data Quality**: Efforts will be made to improve the quality of data collected on birth defects.
3. **Using Data for Better Health Outcomes**: Leveraging surveillance data to implement strategies that improve health outcomes for those affected by birth defects.
Birth defects are a significant cause of infant mortality in the U.S., affecting 1 in 33 babies and leading to considerable healthcare costs. The CDC has been funding birth defects surveillance since the 1990s, but the evolving health landscape means surveillance programs need to adapt and develop new capabilities. The recent Zika virus outbreak highlighted the necessity for timely surveillance and reinforced the need for strong state health department capacities.
The grant opportunity consists of three components:
- **Component A** (8-12 awards): Aims to enhance surveillance capacity, data quality, knowledge of epidemiology, and prevention efforts. - **Component B** (1-2 awards): Focuses on developing interoperability between birth defect surveillance systems and electronic health records. - **Component C** (4-12 awards): Involves linking screening results for critical congenital heart defects with surveillance data.
Recipients of the grant will be required to report their findings to the CDC, with the overall objective of improving the quality and usefulness of birth defects surveillance systems.Apply for CDC RFA DD21 2101
