PLEASE NOTE: Addendum #1 dated 12/6/18 has been issued for this RFA in regard to updated hyperlinks. Please refer to the full RFA document for further details.
The New York State Department of Health (Department) Tobacco Control Program (TCP) seeks applications from organizations that will work to engage health care systems to improve the delivery of guideline-concordant care for tobacco dependence through systems and policy change at the health care organizational level. A systems approach is consistent with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Health Impact Pyramid (Frieden, 2010) and with interventions that have broader population impact and require lower individual level effort. Health care organizations that serve disproportionately affected populations (people with low income, low educational attainment, serious mental illness, substance use disorders, or those with other physical disabilities) are the priority focus for this Request for Applications (RFA). Health system interventions should result in expansion of the reach of evidence-based smoking cessation interventions without direct provision of those services (with these funds). The focus of this procurement is working with high level administrative decision-makers to ensure that providers in the health systems they oversee deliver effective tobacco dependence treatment to its members.
Awardees will maximize the impact of tobacco dependence treatment by working with targeted health care provider organizations to formally incorporate these strategies into their standard policies and procedures. Targeted systems include, but are not limited to, organizations such as community health centers (CHCs), Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs), mental health/behavioral health service organizations, and other health care provider organizations that primarily serve the targeted populations.
Under this RFA, the Department seeks to develop a statewide network of up to ten contractors, covering all counties in New York State, through ten service regions. |
