Opportunity Information: Apply for CMS 1W1 24 001
The Minority Research Grant Program 2024 is a discretionary grant opportunity from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) designed to advance health equity through practical, data-driven health services research. Authorized under Section 1110 of the Social Security Act, the program is intended to fund research that can directly and clearly improve health outcomes for people across all minority populations. The focus is not only on describing disparities, but on producing evidence that can be translated into real changes in how care is delivered, accessed, and experienced.
A central goal of this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) is to encourage innovative studies that address health disparities at the health care system level. That means proposals are expected to look at issues such as how health systems, policies, payment models, administrative processes, care coordination, or access pathways may contribute to unequal outcomes, and how those system-level factors can be modified to reduce inequities. The NOFO also highlights interest in research related to health-related social needs, including work that characterizes these needs and uses inferential analysis to understand determining factors. In practice, that points to projects that use rigorous methods to identify drivers of disparities, test associations, and generate actionable findings that can inform interventions or policy decisions.
Eligibility is limited to specific categories of minority-serving institutions. Applicants must be one of the following: Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), Hispanic Serving Institutions (HSIs), Asian American and Native American and Pacific Islander-Serving Institutions (AANAPISIs), Tribal Colleges and Universities (TCUs), Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian Serving Institutions (ANNHs), Native American-Serving Non-Tribal Institutions (NASNTIs), or Predominantly Black Institutions (PBIs). The source data also indicates the broader applicant types as public and state-controlled institutions of higher education and private institutions of higher education, which aligns with the program being aimed at eligible colleges and universities within those federally recognized categories.
From a funding and competition standpoint, the opportunity is listed under Funding Opportunity Number CMS-1W1-24-001 and CFDA 93.779, with an award ceiling of $255,000. CMS expects to make about five awards under this round. The opportunity was created on April 1, 2024, and the original application closing date was June 3, 2024. Institutions are allowed to submit more than one application as long as each proposed project is scientifically distinct, which creates room for universities with multiple strong research teams or multiple priority topics to compete without forcing everything into a single proposal.
Overall, this grant is meant for minority-serving higher education institutions that want to conduct applied health services research with a clear line of sight to reducing disparities and improving outcomes. Competitive projects will likely be those that combine strong methodology with practical relevance to health systems and policy, especially where the research can produce credible evidence about the drivers of inequity and what can be changed to address them.Apply for CMS 1W1 24 001
