NIH Consumer Health Request for Information

NIH Consumer Health Request for Information: "We would like to hear from you!

The NIH Office of Communication and Public Liaison (OCPL) and the NIH Director's Council of Public Representatives (COPR) have partnered to develop a Consumer Health Information RFI in response to a Directive by President Barack Obama to all Federal agencies calling for greater transparency, public participation, and collaboration.

In conjunction with the NIH goals for public input and effective dissemination of science-based health resources and information to the public, the RFI will provide insight and better understanding of the health information needs and information-seeking behaviors of NIH health consumer audiences. Information gathered will assist the agency in developing and disseminating health, medical, and scientific information to a broader variety of audiences."
