The Effect of Rapid Assessment Times on Length of Stay in an Urban Emergency Department

Physicians are often the first to identify breakthroughs in health care. The Physician Investigator Research Award Program provides seed money to physicians to explore the merits of a particular research idea for further study. We offer grants of $10,000 for projects that include pilot, feasibility or small research studies in clinical or health services research.
