Opportunity Information: Apply for CDC RFA GH16 1614

This funding opportunity, titled "Strengthening the HIV Services Quality Improvement and Quality Management Systems of the Ethiopian Federal Ministry of Health, Regional Health Bureaus, and Public Health Facilities under PEPFAR," is a CDC discretionary cooperative agreement focused on improving the quality of HIV services delivered through Ethiopia's public health system. The main goal is to strengthen the capacity of the Ethiopian Federal Ministry of Health (FMOH), Regional Health Bureaus (RHBs), sub-national units, and individual health facilities to plan, implement, and track quality improvement (QI) and quality management (QM) activities in a consistent, measurable way. In practical terms, the grant is aimed at helping government health leaders and frontline facilities use structured QI/QM methods to raise service standards, identify gaps, fix problems, and sustain improvements over time across the HIV care continuum.

The program scope is large and clearly defined. The FOA supports HIV QI/QM programming in two categories of public health facilities: 284 "scale-up" facilities (sites expanding services and systems) and 312 "maintenance" facilities (sites expected to sustain and refine established services). A major workforce component is also included: the training and deployment of 370 Master of Healthcare Administration (MHA) graduates. That element signals an emphasis on building long-term managerial and systems leadership inside the health sector, not just short-term project support. By placing trained health administrators into the system, the initiative is designed to improve the day-to-day management required to keep QI/QM functioning, such as routine data use, supportive supervision, process redesign, and performance monitoring.

Administratively, the opportunity is issued by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Center for Global Health (CGH), under PEPFAR, and is identified as Funding Opportunity Number CDC RFA GH16-1614. The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which typically means CDC will have substantial programmatic involvement beyond standard grant oversight, such as collaboration on technical approaches, monitoring expectations, and strategic alignment with national HIV program priorities. The activity category is Health and the CFDA number listed is 93.067. The FOA anticipated a single award (Expected Awards: 1) with an award ceiling of $1,000,000. Key dates included a creation date of 2015-12-03 and an original closing date of 2016-02-03.

Eligibility is intentionally broad, covering many types of organizations that could plausibly support national and sub-national health systems strengthening. Eligible applicants include multiple levels of government entities (state, county, city/township, special district), regional organizations, US territories/possessions, independent school districts, public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, nonprofits with or without 501(c)(3) status, individuals, for-profit organizations (including small businesses), and several categories of minority-serving institutions (such as Hispanic-serving institutions, historically black colleges and universities, and Alaska Native/Native Hawaiian-serving institutions). It also explicitly includes non-domestic (non-US) entities and a set of "other" eligible organizations that are especially relevant to public health implementation, such as Ministries of Health, tribal epidemiology centers, urban Indian health organizations, research institutions conducting non-research activities, colleges and universities, community-based and faith-based organizations, hospitals, and small/minority/women-owned businesses. The practical takeaway is that CDC set the eligibility net wide, allowing both Ethiopian and international partners, academic institutions, implementers, and health service organizations to apply, as long as they could credibly deliver the required QI/QM capacity-building and facility support at scale.

Overall, the grant is centered on making HIV services better and more reliable by improving the systems that manage quality, rather than funding direct clinical care alone. The emphasis on planning, implementation, and monitoring suggests that recipients would be expected to help establish or strengthen QI/QM structures, routines, and accountability across multiple levels of the health system, from national leadership (FMOH) to regional governance (RHBs) down to facility teams. The facility counts and MHA deployment targets reflect a national-scale effort to standardize and sustain improvements in how HIV services are delivered, measured, and continuously improved within Ethiopia's public sector health facilities under the broader PEPFAR response.
