RFP for Development of a Pain Management Healthcare Curriculum & Resources
- This RFP had a pre-bid event.
The Companies are issuing this RFP on behalf of the NIH Pain Consortium Initiative: Centers of Excellence in Pain Education.
Purpose: Create Centers of Excellence in Pain Education (CoEPEs) to act as a hub for the creation, development, evaluation, integration, promotion, and distribution of pain management curriculum resources for medical and other health professional schools. The CoEPEs will also serve as a source of leadership for change in the pain management education of health professionals nationwide. Case-based scenarios will form the backbone of the curriculum resources.
Eligible Offerors: Accredited medical, dental, nursing, and/or pharmacy professional schools. Collaborations between schools within institutions, as well as between different institutions, are encouraged. Inter-professional curriculum resources that promote teamwork among medical, dental, nursing, and/or pharmacy professionals are also encouraged.
Awards:
Three years of funding at the following maximum levels (subject to further evaluation during the negotiation process):
Year 1: $95,000
Year 2: $90,000
Year 3: $90,000
>> Curriculum resources requiring annual budgets that are below these maximum values are encouraged.
>> In cases where several schools collaborate to submit a proposal together, we will consider adjusting these maximum values. We would expect the collaboration to propose coverage of multiple topics in pain management and to demonstrate a record of proven successful collaborations in the past.
