About this program

The Department of Health and Human Services Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) operates the Chiropractic Demonstration Project Grants program (CFDA 93.212) to fund demonstration projects in which chiropractors and physicians collaborate to identify and provide effective treatment for spinal and lower back conditions; the program's most recent grant award was dated September 1, 2009, over 17 years ago.

The program is effectively inactive. No grant awards have been disbursed since 2009. The portfolio shows 13 total federal awards spanning from 2000 to 2009, with a concentration in 2000, 2006, and 2009; the award cadence was sporadic, ranging from one award in 2001 to four awards in both 2006 and 2009. No recent grant opportunities are documented in the source.

Recent demonstration projects funded under the program investigated chiropractic and physician co-management of low back pain across demographic groups: co-management of older adults with low back pain, chiropractic and exercise management of spinal dysfunction in seniors, chiropractic and exercise intervention for low back pain in adolescents, and geriatric low back pain combined with balance assessment and management. Earlier projects examined chiropractic versus active exercise for chronic back pain, individualized chiropractic and integrative care for low back pain, and chiropractic and self-care for back-related leg pain. One project addressed musculoskeletal and obstetric management.

The program awards a mix of Block Grants (54% of awards, 7 grants) and Project Grants (46% of awards, 6 grants). HRSA was the sole funding agency, obligating a combined $7.5 million across the 13 awards. Representative recent Project Grants in 2009 ranged from approximately $1.1 million to $1.5 million per award: co-management of older adults received $1,270,911; chiropractic and exercise management of spinal dysfunction in seniors received $1,485,347; and low back pain intervention in adolescents received $1,543,343.

No current or recently posted grant opportunities are supported by the source. Given the absence of awards or opportunities in the 17 years since the final 2009 disbursement, the program should be classified as inactive or discontinued.
