United States of America

CFG-5 CKD in T2D

CFG-5 CKD in T2D

Call For Grant – 5

Budget – NOT to exceed $300,000

Intended Audience: PCPs (nurses, PA), Endocrinologist, Internal Medicine

Bayer TA Rationale for Educational Support:

  • ACP National and/or Regional meeting
    • Education on guidelines remains important, they reinforce the role of Kerendia as a fundamental treatment for CKD in T2D.
    • Focus on patient identification
    • Awareness of cardiorenal risk, not just where on the eGFR scale a patient is.
    • Awareness of patients on optimal ACE/ARB + SGLT2i have significant residual risk that has not been addressed.

Preferred Format:

  • Enduring
  • Downloadable slides
  • Incorporation of social media outreach (You-Tube, FaceBook, Spotify, LinkedIn, Twitter)
  • Podcast
  • Live Virtual

Proposal Requirements:

The proposal must be compliant with standards and guidelines for commercial support (e.g., ACCME).

The proposal should include

  • Needs assessment
  • Educational design and rationale for selection (where applicable)
  • Learning Objectives
  • Proposed Faculty
  • Participant recruitment plan (where applicable)
  • Outcomes strategy/plan
  • Detailed budget (please use the template available on the website)

Provider Justification:

Copy of most recent accreditation letter and status

Process

Applications/proposals which are submitted and determined to be complete are reviewed monthly. Allow a minimum of 45 days from submission for response.
