Opportunity Information: Apply for CMS 1W1 20 001
The Minority Research Grant Program (MRGP) is a discretionary grant opportunity offered by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). It is designed to support CMS in carrying out its research and design (R and D) responsibilities, with a strong emphasis on work that improves access to care and the quality of services for minority populations and other underserved Medicare and Medicaid beneficiaries. A central theme of the program is reducing health disparities, particularly by generating practical, evidence-based insights that CMS can use to inform policy, program design, and service delivery.
The program is aimed at external researchers, especially those whose work focuses on Social Determinants of Health. CMS is looking to leverage the expertise of these investigators to identify best practices that can meaningfully reduce disparities in health outcomes and access. Beyond producing research findings, MRGP also has capacity-building goals. It seeks to strengthen the ability of individual investigators to participate in CMS research and design initiatives and to expand the institutional capacity of minority-serving institutions so they can function as strong, effective partners in CMS research efforts over the long term.
