Conflict of Interest
Institutions must file significant disclosures to the National Institutes of Health if they determine financial relationships could affect the design, conduct or reporting of the NIH-funded research. The NIH provided us with their entire financial conflict of interest database, with filings from 2012 through 2019.

Ensuring Access to Novel Alzheimer’s and Dementia Treatments: Evaluating Innovative Payment Approaches
Project Narrative Progress against Alzheimer's disease and related dementias has been frustratingly slow, but effective treatments may be on the horizon. We will bring together experts in economics, neuroscience, and ADRD care to identify and quantify alternative reimbursement strategies that could ensure better access to therapies and more rapid innovation. Drawing on a mix of qualitative and quantitative research, the proposed research will identify novel reimbursement strategies to ensure ADRD patients gain access to the most promising treatment alternatives, and quantify their social benefits and costs, including caregivers.

Notes: When a more specific filing date is not available for an individual financial disclosure or conflict of interest form, we use the year the form was filed. If the year was not disclosed, we report the range of years covered by our public records requests. In a few cases, a start date was provided instead of a filing date. In those cases, we use the start date instead.
Fewer than 10% of records from the University of Florida and fewer than 1% of records from the University of Texas system were removed because they did not contain enough information.
ProPublica obtained additional financial disclosures and conflict of interest forms that we have not yet digitized and added to the database. You can download those disclosures in the ProPublica Data Store.
