Proposed Project: Research Evaluation and Impact Assessment of ARRA Comparative Effectiveness Research Portfolio—OMB No. 0990–NewAssistant Secretary Planning and Evaluation (ASPE). Abstract: Researchers and policymakers have emphasized the need for research on effectiveness of health care interventions under real-world conditions in diverse populations and clinical practice settings, that is, comparative effectiveness research (CER). The American Reinvestment and Recovery Act of 2009 (ARRA) expanded Federal resources devoted to CER by directing $1.1 billion to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) for such research. ARRA also called for a report to Congress and the Secretary of HHS on priority CER topics by the Institute of Medicine (IOM). The report presented priority CER topics and recommendations to support a robust and sustainable CER enterprise. In addition, ARRA established the Federal Coordinating Council on Comparative Effectiveness Research (FCCCER) to help coordinate and minimize duplicative efforts of Federally sponsored CER across multiple agencies and to advise the President and Congress on how to allocate Federal CER expenditures. This project seeks to evaluate and assess the products and outcomes of ARRA-funded CER investments and the impacts of those investments on the priority topics recommended by IOM and on the categories and themes of the FCCCER framework. The primary goals of this evaluation are to (1) conduct an initial assessment of the ARRA CER portfolio, cataloguing how CER funding was invested to achieve the vision of the FCCCER and assessing initial impact from the perspective of various stakeholders; and (2) lay the groundwork for future CER investments by identifying investment opportunities, evidence gaps and lessons learned.
