The Prevention Fund continues to get targeted for cuts: learn the latest developments from DC, and Please join us for a late breaking Web Forum to learn about an important funding opportunity from the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Innovation (CMMI). The Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) makes available $1 billion for round 2 of the Health Care Innovation Awards (HCIA) to test new payment and service delivery models that improve quality and reduce the cost of treating people enrolled in Medicare, Medicaid and the Children’s Health Insurance Program.
CMMI is seeking proposals that improve the health of populations through prevention, wellness, and comprehensive care that extends beyond the clinical service delivery system setting and addresses the social determinants of health. Eligible applicants include provider groups, health systems, payers and other private sector organizations, faith-based organizations, states, local governments, public-private partnerships and for-profit organizations.
The Web Forum will review the application requirements, share helpful resources, and showcase the experiences from a prior recipient of HCIA funding that has focused on prevention. Please join us for a discussion about this exciting opportunity to promote community prevention and to continue transforming our sick care system into a true health care system.
