Announcing: Alliance for Better Health Rapid Response Open Calls (RROCs)

Catalyst @ Health 2.0 is proud to host TWO Rapid Response Open Calls (RROC) in collaboration with Alliance for Better Health, sponsored by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. Alliance for Better Health engages medical and social service providers in developing innovative solutions to promote people’s health, with a goal of transforming the care delivery system into one that incentivizes health and prevention. 

The first RROC, which launched this past Tuesday, is seeking health tech tracking solutions to assist medical and social care providers in managing the two-phased vaccination administration for underserved & vulnerable and vulnerable populations. The intended public health providers are those working in or with FQHCs, homeless shelters, food pantries, substance abuse clinics, and/or related organizations with target populations that are most at risk of being lost to follow up. 

In the second RROC, which opened today(!), Alliance For Better Health is requesting health tech solutions to aid community-based care coordinators in COVID-19 vaccine administration screening and appointment scheduling for underserved and vulnerable patient populations. The intended care providers are those working with patients who may lack resources, health literacy, or face other barriers to self-scheduling appointments.

Do you have a solution that can fit either of these needs? Each RROC has a grand prize of $15k! Apply HERE for the first RROC (vaccine administration tracking), and HERE for the second RROC (vaccine scheduling). Good luck!
