Congratulations to our 2026 Grant Program Recipients: Program Type: Radiation Safety The Brave Bear Brigade is an innovative initiative designed to enhance pediatric patient care and safety in medical imaging by addressing the emotional and psychological needs of children who require repeated imaging procedures.
Through the simple yet powerful act of providing each child with a superhero-themed stuffed bear, the program seeks to reduce fear, improve cooperation during imaging, and foster a more compassionate and supportive care environment. Program Type: Pediatric Imaging Atrium Health Navicent Beverly Knight Olson Children's Hospital proposes implementing the “Pediatric Imaging Comfort & Education Program” using the Philips KittenScanner.
This initiative will serve as a structured educational and anxiety-reduction program designed to familiarize pediatric patients and their families with the imaging process. The goal is to create a child-friendly pathway that reduces fear, decreases motion-related repeat scans, and improves overall imaging quality and safety.
Director, School of Medical Imaging Geisinger Health System-Geisinger Medical Center Program Type: Diagnostic Imaging The initiative focuses on enhancing patient care and safety in medical imaging by integrating hands-on training with a radiologic phantom for radiography students within our School of Medical Imaging.
This program will serve as a bridge between theoretical knowledge and practical application, ensuring students develop competency in safe imaging practices before working with real patients.
Director of Clinical Operations Program Type: Diagnostic Imaging Banner Imaging plans to implement authentic, patient-centered imagery and video content across all Banner Imaging ambulatory MRI locations, eliminating psychological harm and anxiety associated with unrealistic stock photography.
By replacing generic images with genuine representations of real patients, staff, and MR environments—and providing patients with a short, authentic video before their appointment—we will create a trustworthy, calming experience that directly improves patient safety outcomes, reduces scan anxiety, and enhances image quality.
Assistant Director of Radiology The University of Kansas Health System Program Type: Diagnostic Imaging The University of Kansas Health System Radiology Department is seeking support from the AHRA Putting Patients First grant to elevate the safety, quality, and consistency of MRI operations across our rapidly expanding network.

These rights include the right of natural persons or their representatives to access their personal electronic health data through electronic health data access services, the right to insert information in their own electronic health record (EHR), the right to rectification, the right to portability and the right to restrict access to their electronic health data. The rights also contribute to the achievement of the target of 100% of Union citizens having access to their electronic health records by 2030, as set in the Digital Decade policy programme. For primary use, implementing these rights under the EHDS Regulation requires concrete action, capacity-building and training, to support the digital health community, particularly public authorities, healthcare providers, and service providers, particularly Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs), in the deployment of digital health services and systems that support these rights (across all the priority data categories) and that adopt the EEHRxF (European Electronic Health Record Exchange Format), taking into account the specific circumstances of different c Programme areas: DIGITAL-1 Keywords: Civil society organisations, Continuing professional training, Creation of processes and new forms of cooperation, Curricular education activities with enterprises, Data Security and Privacy, Data reuse, Digital Services and Platforms, Education, Education and Training, Europe's innovation potential, Health and Ecosystem Services, Health care, Health data, Health information, Health sciences, IT skills and competence, Identification of skills needs, Knowledge transfer, Learning outcomes, Life sciences, Privacy, Public administration, Public administration innovation, Public sector information, Public sector innovation, Quality of education/educational products, Regulation, Stakeholder management, Teaching materials, Training of trainers (multiplication), Transfer of educational results/products to new sectors, eHealth, Capacity building for healthcare providers, Cascading funding mechanism for digital health, Certified digital health service providers, Citizen health data rights, Community of practice for health data holders, Data management best practices, Digital Decade Policy Programme (2030 targets, Digital health service deployment, EEHRxF, EHDS compliance for healthcare providers, EU digital health policy, Electronic health records (EHR) access, European Electronic Health Record Exchange Format, Guidance for EHR system deployment, HDABs, Health Data Access Bodies, Health data governance, Health data holder obligations under EHDS, Health data holders, Health data interoperability, Healthcare providers, Patient-controlled health records, Primary and secondary use of health data, Public authority digital health readiness, Right to access electronic health data, Right to data portability in healthcare, Right to rectification of health data, Right to restrict health data access, Staff training in digital health systems, Toolbox for health data secondary use, Training for SMEs in digital health, Training framework for EHDS compliance
Money Follows the Person Rebalancing Demonstration is sponsored by Department of Health And Human Services. The Money Follows the Person (MFP) Rebalancing Demonstration, authorized by section 6071 of the Deficit Reduction Act of 2005 (P.L. 109-171), was designed to assist States to balance their long-term services and supports systems and help Medicaid enrollees transition from institutions to the community. Congress initially authorized up to $1.75 billion in Federal funds through Fiscal Year (FFY) 2011. With the subsequent passage of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (P.L. 111-148) in 2010, section 2403 extended the program through September 30, 2016. An additional $2.25 billion in Federal funds was appropriated through FFY 2016. Since then, section 2 of the Medicaid Extenders Act of 2019 (P.L. 116-3) added $112 million in Federal funds and changed the end date for the program from September 30, 2016 to September 30, 2021. Section 5 of the Medicaid Services Investment and Accountability Act of 2019 (P.L. 116-16) changed the additional funding appropriated through the Medicaid Extenders Act from $112 million to $132 million and section 4 of the Sustaining Excellence in Medicaid Act of 2019 (P.L 116-39) changed the additional funding appropriated through the Medicaid Services Investment and Accountability Act from $132 million to $254.5 million. Section 205 of the Further Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2020 (P.L. 116-94) and section 3811 of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (P.L. 116-136) provided an additional $337.5 million. Section 2301 of the Continuing Appropriations Act, 2021 and Other Extensions Act (P.L. 116-159) added $66.4 million, section 1107 of the Further Continuing Appropriations Act, 2021, and other Extensions Act (P.L. 116-215) added $6.5 million. Section 204 of the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021 (P.L. 116-260) added $1.253 billion, extended and made changes to the program. The Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2023 (P.L.117-328) added $1.8 billion and extended the program through September 30, 2027. . As required by the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2023, grant funds appropriated for each fiscal year must be awarded by the end of the following fiscal year. Funds awarded to MFP grant recipients are available for the fiscal year in which they are awarded plus four additional fiscal years. Any portion of a grant award that is unexpended by the state at the end of the fourth succeeding fiscal year shall be rescinded and added to the appropriation for the fifth succeeding fiscal year. The MFP Demonstration supports State efforts to rebalance their long-term services and supports system so that individuals have a choice of where they live and receive services. MFP program goals are (1) increase the use of home and community-based services (HCBS) and reduce the use of institutionally-based services; (2) eliminate barriers in State law, State Medicaid plans, and State budgets that restrict the use of Medicaid funds to let people get long-term services and supports in the settings of their choice; (3) strengthen the ability of Medicaid programs to provide HCBS to people who choose to transition out of institutions; and (4) put procedures in place to provide quality assurance and improvement of HCBS. The demonstration provides for an enhanced Federal Medical Assistance Percentage (FMAP) for 12 months for qualified home and community-based services for each person transitioned from an institution to the community during the demonstration period. Eligibility for transition is dependent upon residence in a qualified institution for more than 60 consecutive days. The State must continue to provide community-based services after the 12-month period for as long as the person needs community-based services and is Medicaid eligible. Under the demonstration, the State must propose a system of Medicaid home and community-based care that will be sustained after the demonstration period and is deemed qualified by the Secretary. Specifically, the program must be conducted in conjunction with a "qualified HCBS program" which is a program that is in operation (or approved) in the State for such individuals in a manner that assures continuity of Medicaid coverage of services in the qualified HCBS program for eligible individuals. States may also propose to enhance the services they will provide during the demonstration period to achieve greater success with transition. States are required to participate in a national qualitative and quantitative evaluation conducted by CMS. Data collected on a national level helps evaluate the core objectives of the statute.

National Institute on Drug Abuse Helping to End Addiction Long-term (HEAL) Initiative is sponsored by Department of Health And Human Services. Since its launch with the support of Congress in 2018, the NIH HEAL Initiative has made the nation’s largest ever investment in research to end the national overdose crisis. Overdose fatalities account for tens of thousands of deaths annually and there are nearly 9 million Americans ages 12 and older who misused opioids in the past year, and an estimated 5.7 million with opioid use disorder (OUD), which is likely an undercount of how many people are actually affected. In parallel, chronic pain affects 50 million adults in the United States with nearly 20 million living daily with chronic pain that interferes with their lives and if improperly treated, puts them at risk for illicit opioid misuse alongside the risk of OUD and overdoses. The NIH HEAL Initiative was launched through specific Congressional funding to the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) and the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) to address these challenges using a multifaceted evidence-based approach that brings together scientists, healthcare providers, patient advocates, community members, the private sector, and multiple levels of government – all sharply focused on developing and deploying scientific solutions with the ultimate goal of preventing all overdoses and developing safer, nonaddictive treatments for pain. The NIDA HEAL Initiative strategic plan for OUD and overdoses includes two core research objectives around which NIDA will prioritize HEAL research investments: (1) Advance research to prevent and treat OUD and overdoses including overdoses that result from the use of multiple substances simultaneously. (2) Advance cross-cutting research to prevent and treat OUD and overdoses in the context of chronic pain and other mental health conditions that commonly occur in people who experience OUD. These research objectives incorporate other cross-cutting goals, including enhancing women’s and children’s health; addressing public health challenges across the lifespan; promoting collaborative science; and leveraging data science for biomedical discovery.
