The FY17 federal budget was released February 9, 2016. This blog entry will track FY17 appropriations developments for NIH, NSF, and AHRQ and so will be updated accordingly. (See log updates below.) To receive notifications of updates, follow ASA Science Policy on Twitter: @ASA_SciPol. 

Because this blog entry covers everything from the budget request to the final determination of the budget, it can become quite long. To help with that, I'll try to partition the blog entry:

AHRQ request also includes an additional $106 million from the PCOR trust fund, which, if approved by Congress would bring the FY17 AHRQ budget to 469.7.
Levels in billions of dollars except for AHRQ

Reports on Congressional Consideration of FY17 budgets

  • 7/6/16: Friends of AHRQ says of the Draft House Labor HHS bill: "the bill rescinds $150 million from the Patient Centered Outcomes Research Trust Fund. As mandated by the Affordable Care Act, up to 20 percent of the amount in the PCOR Trust Fund shall be used to support research capacity building and dissemination activities and of this amount, 80 percent may be used by AHRQ and 20 percent may be used by the Secretary. AHRQ received approximately $90 million from the PCOR Trust Fund in FY 2016 in addition to its base discretionary budget. So a hit on the PCOR Trust Fund would have implications for AHRQ’s program level budget, as well as that of the Patient Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI). The bill also prohibits the use of any discretionary funding to support patient-centered outcomes research, which would impact the portfolio of the National Institutes of Health, and it rescinds $7 billion from the Center on Medicare and Medicaid Innovation or CMMI."
