Description

This NOFO aims to implement and evaluate evidence-based strategies contributing to the prevention and management of CVD in populations at the highest risk. However, given the importance of health equity, this new NOFO also addresses social and economic factors to help health systems respond to social determinants present in their communities to offer those at risk of, or burdened with CVD, the best health outcomes possible.
Background
The National Cardiovascular Health Program is a new funding opportunity from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) aimed at implementing and evaluating evidence-based strategies to prevent and manage cardiovascular disease (CVD) in populations disproportionately at risk. The program also addresses social and economic factors to help communities and health systems respond to social determinants present in their communities to offer those at risk of or burdened with CVD the best health outcomes possible.

Grant Details
The program aims to track and monitor clinical and social services and support needs measures shown to improve health and wellness, health care quality, and identify patients at the highest risk of CVD with a focus on hypertension and high cholesterol. It also seeks to implement team-based care to prevent and reduce CVD risk with a focus on hypertension and high cholesterol prevention, detection, control, and management through the mitigation of social support barriers to improve outcomes. Additionally, it aims to link community resources and clinical services that support bidirectional referrals, self-management, and lifestyle change to address social determinants that put priority populations at increased risk for cardiovascular disease with a focus on hypertension and high cholesterol.

Eligibility Requirements
The program is open for competition. It is a Cooperative Agreement type funding instrument. The approximate number of awards is 51, with a total period of performance funding of $275,000,000. The average one-year award amount is $1,000,000. There are no cost-sharing or matching requirements.

Period of Performance

Additional Info
Per the program’s authorizing statute or regulation: Sec 317(a) of the Public Health Service Act [42 USC 247b] only  State governments, including the District of Columbia, or their bona fide agents are eligible to apply.  Local health departments are eligible to compete under a separate NOFO (The Innovative Cardiovascular Health Program), and Tribes and Tribal-serving organizations are and will continue to be funded under separate NOFOs (https://www.cdc.gov/healthytribes/index.htm). FY22 House Report language asserts the significant increases to DHDSP’s budget allocations should be directed to “support, strengthen, and expand current evidence-based initiatives at the State, local, tribal, and territorial level.” Committee language further supports a continuation of DHDSP’s current efforts and “recognizes the vital importance of addressing cardiovascular disease among women and underserved communities, communities of color, those communities with limited access to information about cardiovascular health disease, and communities at risk for delaying regular monitoring of cardiovascular health as a result of the COVID–19 pandemic. The Committee supports CDC’s efforts to improve our understanding of the outcomes and health effects of COVID–19 infection, including cardiovascular disease.” [House Committee Report 117-96, p. 89. Available at: CRPT-117hrpt96.pdf (congress.gov)]More recently, FY23 House Report language directs efforts to “support, strengthen, and expand evidence-based initiatives at the State, local, tribal, and territorial level. The Committee recognizes the vital importance of addressing cardiovascular disease among women, particularly women of color, and further recognizes that the resulting costs to the health care system of unrecognized cardiovascular disease in women can be substantially reduced with appropriate public awareness and prevention”. [FY23 House Report 117-403, p. 80. Available at:CRPT-117hrpt403.pdf (congress.gov)] FY23 Explanatory Statement asserts the agreement includes an increase to strengthen and expand evidence-based heart disease and stroke prevention activities focused on high risk populations. Applicants should refer to the funding table for specific funding amounts for each state.
