The Centers for Disease Control - NCBDDD is seeking non-research, cooperative agreement applications for the surveillance of congenital heart defects (CHD) among children, adolescents, and adults. This project aims to describe health outcomes, including health equity, and identify opportunities to improve the health of individuals living with CHD. The surveillance activity will involve assessing survival, comorbidities, healthcare utilization, and characteristics associated with long-term outcomes among people with CHD. It will also examine state and national healthcare policies impacting people with CHD and explore the impact of COVID-19 on this population. Additionally, the project includes the development and refinement of a machine learning algorithm for the surveillance data collected. The deadline for electronically submitted applications is May 14, 2024, at 11:59 pm ET.
