California Health Care Foundation is accepting proposals for its California Hospitals Almanac project. CHCF seeks a grantee or grantees to produce a data intensive statewide report on California general acute care hospitals, including capacity, utilization, finances, market structure and pricing, quality, relevant policy developments, comparisons, charts, tables, graphics, source annotation, and fact checking.
Funding: Award amount is TBD. CHCF has not published an applicant maximum or award range. No match or cost share requirement is stated in the published RFP.
Deadline: September 17, 2026 at 5:00 p.m. CHCF did not publish a time zone label on the opportunity page, and Atlas did not infer one. The stated deadline has passed, so this 2026 cycle is closed for new pursuit.
Applicant and qualification note: Applicant teams must demonstrate health care research and data analysis qualifications. CHCF’s general solicited proposal rules contemplate multiple organizational and contractor structures, but the RFP controls applicant requirements.
Required proposal packet: CHCF Project Cover Sheet; proposal narrative of no more than six pages, double spaced, in 12 point font; qualifications appendix; and detailed budget using CHCF’s budget form. Proposals must be emailed as one PDF to Diana Banki at dbanki@chcf.org. Questions may be directed to Robbin Gaines at rgaines@chcf.org.
Amendments and FAQs: No RFP specific addendum or FAQ was listed on the official opportunity page at verification.
Atlas analysis: Atlas Opportunity Score 72/100. N9+ Fit Score 2/100. No device, telehealth, remote examination, RPM, CCM, TCM, or equipment procurement role is published. No Dr. Miltie or QC Healthcare direct bid or outreach is advanced without verified research qualifications.
