Grant Description
Grants to USA and territories nonprofit and for-profit organizations, institutions of higher education, agencies, and Native American tribal entities to improve health care delivery. Applicants are advised that required registrations may take six weeks or more to complete. The project must produce evidence to make healthcare safer, higher quality, more accessible, equitable, and affordable.

The Research Project Grant (R01) is an award made by AHRQ to an institution/organization to support a discrete, specified health services research project.

AHRQ supports research, evaluations, and demonstration projects concerning the delivery of health care in inner-city and rural areas (including frontier areas), and health care for priority populations. 

Priority areas of focus are:

  • Research to improve healthcare patient safety
  • Harnessing data and technology to improve healthcare quality and patient outcomes and to provide a 360-degree view of the patient
  • Research to increase accessibility and affordability of healthcare by examining innovative market approaches to care delivery and financing
