What the grant funds

The purpose of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to support research projects focusing on developing new methods and approaches to obtain, extract or aggregate data from existing data streams (e.g., EHR, claims data, registry data, pharmacy dispensing, and mortality records) that can provide novel insights into the dynamics of opioids misuse, addiction, recovery, relapse and recovery and facilitate rapid understanding of the opioid epidemic to inform preventive and treatment interventions. It will emphasize approaches that shorten the lags between data capture and data availability, and methods that improve efficiency and practical use of surveillance, clinical or other relevant data.
