AGENCY FOR HEALTHCARE RESEARCH AND QUALITY

CENTERS FOR MEDICARE & MEDICAID SERVICES

The IBH Model builds upon earlier Innovation Center efforts to include community-based behavioral health practices, including both mental health providers and substance use disorder providers, in value-based care. The IBH Model is based on the lessons learned from previous Innovation Center models, such as the Maternal Opioid Misuse Model, Integrated Care for Kids Model, and the Value in Opioid Use Disorder Treatment Demonstration.

The model will launch in Fall 2024 and is anticipated to operate for eight years in up to eight states. CMS will release a Notice of Funding Opportunity for the model in Spring 2024.

Please visit the IBH Model webpage for more information.

HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES

The Office for Human Research Protections (OHRP) has responsibility for oversight for the compliance of federal regulations for the protection of human research subjects as defined under 45 CFR Part 46, also known as the Common Rule. In carrying out this responsibility, OHRP reviews allegations of noncompliance involving human subject research projects that are either:

  • Directly supported by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), or

  • Being conducted at an institution that has an agreement in place under its Assurance of Compliance to provide OHRP jurisdiction over all research, regardless of source of support.  (This is a voluntary amendment to the Federal Wide Assurance Agreement (FWA) and is not required by institutions.)

NIH Accepts ACD Recommendations to Catalyze the Use of Novel Alternative Methods; Introduces Complement-ARIE

NIH Director, Dr. Monica Bertagnolli announced today that the agency is accepting the Advisory Committee to the NIH Director (ACD) recommendations to catalyze the development and use of novel alternative methods. Through its Novel Alternative Methods (NAMs) Working Group, the ACD consulted with experts in the field and reviewed input from the community to deliver a final report in December 2023. The full report, including the recommendations can be viewed here.

Leveraging these recommendations and building upon existing NIH efforts, the NIH Common Fund has proposed a research program called Complement Animal Research in Experimentation (Complement-ARIE) that aims to accelerate the development of NAM technologies and build a suite of tools that could complement, or in some cases, replace traditional models for researchers to study human biology and disease. This program received concept clearance from the NIH Council of Councils at its January 25, 2024, meeting.  More information can be found on the Complement-ARIE website.
