AHRQ’s Challenge on Digital Solutions to Support Care Transitions: Applications due April 20

AHRQ is still seeking applicants for challenge competition to demonstrate cutting-edge digital solutions for managing transitions in care. Transitions in care are critically important, especially at times when health systems face a surge in demand for services, and communication between providers and patients is vital to getting patients the care they need. Applications for the Digital Solutions to Support Care Transitions Challenge are due April 20. Applicants are asked to develop interoperable health information technology solutions that engage patients and family caregivers during care transitions from inpatient hospital care to home, especially among Americans that may have low health literacy or limited English language proficiency. Check out AHRQ’s video from Director Gopal Khanna, M.B.A. about the challenge, and view details about the challenge from the informational webinar
