NIH is investing approximately $30 million in total funding over fiscal years 2024
and 2025 to pilot a national primary care research network that integrates clinical
research with community-based primary care. The new initiative – called Communities Advancing Research Equity for HealthTM – or CARE for HealthTM – seeks to improve access to clinical research to inform medical care, particularly
for those in communities historically underrepresented in clinical research or underserved
in health care. Informed by the health needs of these communities, CARE for HealthTM will help to grow an evidence base that contributes to improved patient outcomes,
provide communities access to the best available scientific research, and expand opportunities
to participate in clinical trials and studies.
