Description of Collaborative Activity: |
The NIH Comparative Effectiveness Research Coordinating Committee (CER CC) was established in 2008 at the request of the NIH Director. Its members include NIH Institute and Center (IC) Directors and high level senior staff. Its charge is to coordinate ongoing CER initiatives across the agency, develop a long term research vision for CER, implement collaborative initiatives with sister agencies, determine appropriate definitions, policies and guidance relative to CER, administer the CER funds awarded through the American Recovery & Reinvestment Act (ARRA), and track the outcomes of those projects. The CER CC has organized meetings with AHRQ, CMS, the VA, FDA and Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology to discuss potential strategic collaborations. |
