National Institutes of Health
The National Institutes of Health is the country's primary biomedical and health research agency, funding discovery that reaches the front line of care.
What NIH does
The main responsibilities of the National Institutes of Health.
Working with NIH
Keep research-adjacent consent and governance records organised
Track training and credentialing for research-active teams
Maintain an auditable evidence base across services
Sectors, programs & frameworks
The care sectors, federal programs and regulatory frameworks most connected to NIH. Applicability varies by provider type, program and jurisdiction.
Federal programs
Not tied to a specific funding program.
Regulatory frameworks
- No single framework — see the wider regulatory library.
Alongside federal agencies, US care is also shaped by state licensure, survey agencies and Medicaid programmes across all 50 states. Explore the 50-state directory for state-level intelligence.
One platform, from federal government to the front line
CareFocusIQ connects agencies, programs, states and sectors into a single intelligent platform for US care.
CareFocusIQ provides technology and intelligence to support care operations and compliance. It is not a medical device and does not provide legal advice. Regulatory requirements vary by provider type, program and jurisdiction, and remain the responsibility of each provider.
