The Society of Family Planning is offering the High-risk pregnancy care, post-Dobbs request for proposals.
Donor Name: Society of Family Planning
State: All States
County: All Counties
Type of Grant: Grant
Deadline: 08/30/2023
Grant Duration: 24 months
Details:
This funding opportunity is offered in partnership with the Society for Maternal-Fetal Medicine.
They invite research proposals focused on documenting how the Dobbs decision has impacted care for pregnant people at high risk of pregnancy mortality and morbidity, including those with maternal health conditions such as cancer, fetal health conditions such as fetal complications or anomalies, and/or pregnancy complications such as periviable premature rupture of membranes, molar pregnancies, or ectopic pregnancies. Teams are welcome to explore this topic at the level of the healthcare system, institution, clinician, and/or patient (experience or health outcomes). Regardless of level of focus, proposals must clearly define the setting of the proposed research (eg, populations served, size of system, payors, geography) and be attentive to how legal restrictions and the larger healthcare ecosystem interact within that particular setting to shape clinical care for people with high-risk pregnancies. Research proposals focused in legally restrictive settings will be prioritized, with specific attention to health systems that might otherwise be able to offer or refer to evidence-informed care.
Proposed research must be positioned to produce empirical evidence with a clear, concrete, and strategic path to changes in clinical practice, institutional or public policy, and/or health service delivery. They encourage proposals to be as specific as possible in describing the path from research to change, recognizing that change may be differently defined in each project and that pathways to change are constrained in the current environment. Teams must be attentive to the Society of Family Planning’s Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Vision Statement and how they can be part of bringing that vision to life in their work.
