(RFGP) will be released in early May 2019, and applications will be due in early June. SRCH is an innovative model to advance health system improvements that support chronic disease prevention and management. Creating sustainable and effective relationships
between community partners improves preventive and chronic care services as well as health outcomes, reduces healthcare costs, and promotes equity.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Georgia",serif">SRCH will provide Recipient teams the opportunity to develop and strengthen relationships, co-design strategies to formalize infrastructure and/or arrangements between health system
partners and community-based organizational partners (e.g., closed loop referrals, memorandums of understanding), implement quality improvement processes, and collect, analyze and share data to reduce some of the leading causes of death and disability in Oregon.
Developing and improving these sustainable systems may require steps such as creating new payment or reimbursement strategies, increasing the capacity of community-based self-management programs, building and improving closed loop referral systems, and documenting
referral outcomes. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
