The Foundation is requesting proposals for a ‘Clinical Center of Excellence’ (CCE) to effectively treat women suffering from perimenopause, menopause, and other health conditions commonly present for women in midlife. The Center must have the capacity to treat patients in-person (via a physical brick-and-mortar location(s)) and remotely (via telehealth tools). The Center should strive to be a flagship of evidence-based, patient-centered clinical care, leading-edge health innovation, and effective training of current (and future) health providers.
Areas of Interest

- Staffing: Who will provide direct patient care? Please provide names and bios of the planned clinical staff. What medical disciplines will comprise the team? How will the CCE continue to recruit and retain skilled personnel?
- Training: How will the CCE provide initial and continued training to clinical staff on innovations and leading research in the field?
- Clinical approach: How will the CCE approach patient care with respect to perimenopause, menopause, neurodegenerative disease, and other health conditions commonly present for women in midlife? Brief description of the diagnostic and treatment strategies that the CCE will employ for this patient population.
- Integration and Collaboration: How will the Center integrate with other departments, facilities or disciplines within the institution? Will the Center collaborate with other external institutions or practitioners?
- Translational and clinical research: How will the CCE incorporate new and innovative technologies into clinical care? Does the Center plan to undertake any clinical research / trials? If so, additional detail will be required.
- Capital costs (if relevant): Does the CCE require funding for capital renovation or construction? If so, additional details, timelines, designs, and construction plans will be required.
- Patient demand: How will the CCE manage demand for services from the patient community? What is the anticipated patient load per year?
- Patient affordability: Outline of the patient cost and reimbursement structure. How will services be provided for patient with limited or no health insurance?
- Potential for scale: If successful, how will the CCE scale-up to provide services beyond the current catchment area? How could training programs or curricula be expanded to clinicians outside your organization or medical schools?
- Financial plan or budget: Financial plan for the CCE including all sources of funds and budgeted expenses over time.
