DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND

HUMAN SERVICES

Health Resources and Services

Administration

Emergency Medical Service for

Children; Cooperative Agreements for

Emergency Medical Services for

Children Network Development

Demonstration Projects

AGENCY: Health Resources and Services

Administration, HHS.

ACTION: Notice of availability of funds.

SUMMARY: The Health Resources and

Services Administration (HRSA)

announces that up to $1.8 million in

fiscal year (FY) 2001 funds is available

to fund up to three cooperative

agreements for demonstration projects

to develop and potentially replicate a

system of regional applied pediatric

emergency medical services research

centers designed to expand and improve

emergency services for children who

need treatment for trauma or critical

care. These regional centers will be

linked together, as nodes in a network,

with their affiliated hospital emergency

departments, to demonstrate a capacity

to conduct observational studies and

clinical trials on issues relating to the

management of emergency pediatric

events that occur in medical settings as

well as in transport to and from such

settings. Substantial HRSA scientific

and/or programmatic involvement in

the administration of network activities

is anticipated. All of the cooperative

agreements will be made under the

program authority of the Public Health

Service Act, Title XIX, Section 1910 (42

U.S.C. 300w–9), Emergency Medical

Services for Children, and will be

administered by the Maternal and Child

Health Bureau (MCHB), HRSA. Projects

will be approved for up to a 3-year

period, with average yearly awards

varying from $350,000 to $600,000.

However, funding for Emergency

Medical Services for Children (EMSC)

Network Development Cooperative

Agreements (CFDA #93.127L) beyond

FY 2001 is contingent upon the

availability of funds. Announcements

may be made after the initial 3-year

project period to demonstrate the

effectiveness of expanding the number

of regional centers in the network.

DATES: Entities which intend to submit

an application for this program are

expected to notify MCHB’s Division of

their intent by July 2, 2001. The

deadline for receipt of applications is

August 1, 2001. Applications will be

considered ‘‘on time’’ if they are either

or postmarked on or before the deadline

date. The projected award date is

September 30, 2001.
