MRFF - EPCDRI & PHCRI - 2023 Multidisciplinary Models of Primary Care Grant Opportunity (Streams 1, 2 and 3)

Overview

The Medical Research Future Fund (MRFF) – 2023 Multidisciplinary Models of Primary Care Grant Opportunity will support research to: Stream 1 (Aim 1, Objective #1 of Research Plan; Targeted Call for Research): support a competitively selected primary care led national consortium who will work collaboratively to support future-focused ways of thinking about primary care delivery through multidisciplinary team-based care. Stream 2 (Aim 1, Objective #2 of Research Plan; Targeted Call for Research): prospectively evaluate patient registration (using new and routinely collected data, quantitative and qualitative approaches) and how effective it is in different settings. Research proposals in this Stream must focus on one of the following Topics: Topic A: The organisation undertaking the majority of the research is based in any area according to the Modified Monash Model Locator (MM1-7) Topic B: The organisation undertaking the majority of the research, the Chief Investigator A and 50% or more of all Chief Investigators, and all research participants, are primarily resident in a rural, regional or remote area according to the Modified Monash Model Locator (MM2-7). Stream 3 (Aim 3 of Research Plan; Targeted Call for Research): develop and implement collaborative consortia that use existing data assets in innovative ways to inform value-based care, safely share critical patient information to support better diagnosis and healthcare management, empower people to participate in their own healthcare, and drive insights for planning, resourcing and continuous quality improvement. This grant opportunity is intended to support projects that progress research that addresses a specific health need. This grant opportunity is being administered by NHMRC on behalf of the Australian Government Department of Health and Aged Care. Further information on the Medical Research Future Fund is available from the Department of Health and Aged Care’s website.
