This grant, the Health Information Exchange Challenge Program, from the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC), is for accelerating nationwide health information exchange. It funds innovative technology and approaches developed in pilot sites, to be shared across states, enhancing interoperability. The program targets five key areas: achieving health goals via HIE, improving care transitions, enhancing patient data access, developing granular data sharing tools, and fostering population-level analysis. Awards, $1-2 million each, supplement existing State Health Information Exchange Cooperative Agreements. Approximately $16 million supports 10 awards, driving significant progress in national health information exchange.

| Description: | This funding announcement for the Health Information Exchange Challenge Program encourages breakthrough progress for nationwide health information exchange in five challenge areas identified as key needs since Federal and State governments began implementation of the HITECH Act. The awards will fund the development of technology and approaches that will be developed in pilot sites and then shared, reused, and leveraged by other states and communities to increase nationwide interoperability. The five themes include: 1. Achieving health goals through health information exchange 2. Improving long-term and post-acute care transitions 3. Giving patients access to their own health information 4. Developing tools and approaches to search for and share granular patient data (such as specific lab results for a given time period) 5. Fostering strategies for population-level analysis Awards will range between $1 million and $2 million each, and will be in the form of supplemental funding to State Health Information Exchange Cooperative Agreements, which have provided approximately half a billion dollars to states and State designated entities to enable health information exchange. Funding for this initiative is approximately $16 million which ONC anticipates will support 10 awards. |
