The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services’ Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology, in collaboration with over 35 federal partners, released the updated Federal Health IT Strategic Plan 2015–2020 on September 21.
The final plan represents the collective strategy of federal offices that use or influence the use of health IT by aiming to improve the health IT infrastructure, to help transform health care delivery, and to improve individual and community health. The plan sets a blueprint for the federal partners to implement strategies that will support the nation’s continued development of a responsive and secure health IT and information use infrastructure.
