Medical Education Grant Request Program

The ZOLL® LifeVest® Grant Request process creates a standardized method for customers to make requests for grant funding. It also outlines the process for how ZOLL receives and considers third-party Medical Education Grants. Through this process, ZOLL will consider support for Accredited and Independent Medical Education activities in the interest of educating clinicians and increasing awareness of sudden cardiac arrest risk.

Medical Education Grant Requests

The Medical Education Team will review grant requests and determine if and how much support ZOLL LifeVest will provide for each grant request based on the following criteria:

• Has ZOLL supported this organization in the last year? If yes, how much support has been provided?
• Are the topics in the activity related to educating clinicians on the risk of sudden cardiac death, the management of ventricular arrhythmias, or the management of heart failure

Grant requests must include all of the following information:

1. Completed Grant Request Form (Customer Guide and Grant Request Form can be located here)
2. Completed "W-9 Form"
