93.345 -- Leading Edge Acceleration Projects (LEAP) in Health Information Technology
Description
The goal of the LEAP in Health IT funding opportunity is to address well-documented and fast emerging challenges inhibiting the development, use, or advancement of well-designed, interoperable health IT, which are scalable across the healthcare industry. Solutions are expected to further a new generation of health IT tools and inform the development, implementation, and refinement of health IT standards, methods, and techniques towards enabling widespread adoption of health IT tools to improve healthcare outcomes.
It is critical for the health IT field to be able to innovate and leverage the latest technological advancements and breakthroughs to optimize real-time solutions, especially in areas where health IT has potential to improve the health and healthcare for individuals and populations.
The descriptions provided for the two areas of interest, Area 1 and Area 2, include ways applicants may approach developing a project. The areas of interest have been assigned numbers for ease of reference, not for prioritization. While there are many challenges associated with the use of health IT, ASTP identified these two areas of interest as 2025 priority areas.
In fiscal year 2025, ASTP seeks applications pursuant to the LEAP in Health IT notice of funding opportunity for projects that address one of the following areas of interests:
·Area 1: Demonstrate readiness of FHIR®-based Subscriptions capability as a foundational health IT capability for improved interactivity with third-party applications.
Area 2: Identify and test innovative technical approaches that would inform future changes to the TEFCA infrastructure to increase adoption of IAS.
