NCHS National Death Index Investigation Agreement
January, 2020
In January 2020, OBSSR spearheads efforts for an agreement among NIH, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and the National Center for Health Statistics. Through this agreement, NIH reimburses the NCHS National Death Index (NDI) for the costs of NIH-supported investigators to link its research databases with the NDI for research aims supported by NIH.
