Performance Budget Submission for Congressional Justification

Exhibit V. Summary of Full Cost

Continuing work we began in FY 2002 and building on our FY 2006 submission, AHRQ is integrating budget and performance into one submission. AHRQ coded its funded activities to our strategic goal areas. This has been a major undertaking on the part of our planning/budget staff. The following table, along with our crosswalk table, array our funding based on our coding. We continue to perfect our process and are confident that we are moving in the right direction.
