The IPA Foundation Outcomes Innovative Pharmacy Endowment supports innovative pharmacy initiatives in Iowa. It aims to foster advancements in pharmacy practice through research, education, and promotional efforts to enhance the state's healthcare landscape.
The Outcomes Innovative Pharmacy Grant Program aims to financially assist research, education, and the promotion of innovative pharmacy practice initiatives exclusively within Iowa. The grant emphasizes supporting projects that will lead to the development and implementation of novel pharmacy practices. Specifically, it is open to using its funds to cover direct project costs, including fees for research or technician services as long as these expenses are included in the proposed budget. Applicants are encouraged to bring in-kind and matching funds to their projects. The program offers grants up to $10,000, with a special provision for residents, who can receive up to $2,000. It allows for a one-year project timeline with a potential six-month extension for extenuating circumstances. The IPA Foundation intends to support up to five residents per year through this grant.
