American Health Information Community Successive
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services seeks a private entity
to create an independent public-private partnership to succeed the
American Health Information Community (AHIC) organization. The goal is to
develop an organization that can unite public, private, not-for-profit,
and for-profit entities from all sectors of the health community and to
establish leadership that will accelerate emergence of a nationwide
interoperable health information system.
This is a recompetition of a prior funding announcement released on
August 13, 2007. Organizations that submitted a proposal to the previous
announcement may resubmit their proposals. All proposals are due by
January 7, 2008. Awards will be announced by January 15, 2008, and the
winning grantee will be expected to begin operations by spring of 2008. The transition of AHICs work to the successor organization will
start by late fall 2008. The winning grantee will receive funding of up
to $13 million to design, establish, and operate the new organization.
