Leading Edge Acceleration Projects (LEAP) in Health Information Technology

The purpose of this modification was to add a new file titled, LEAP Special Emphasis Notice - 2020. This notice makes funding available for this project this fiscal year. This modification also revised the close date explanation to include the due date for applications for this funding cycle. -

Through the proliferation of new methods and advanced solution that are scalable across the health care industry, this funding opportunity will address well-documented and fast emerging challenges which inhibit the development, use, and/or advancement of well-designed, interoperable health IT. New approaches are expected to further a new generation of health IT development and inform the implementation and refinement of standards, methods, and techniques for overcoming major barriers and challenges in an innovative fashion as they are identified. It is critical that the field of health care innovate and leverage the latest technological advancements and breakthroughs far quicker than it currently does to optimize real-time solutions, especially in areas which are ripe for acceleration.This funding opportunity is specifically interested in innovative solutions and breakthrough advances in the following areas of interest: 1) Standardization and Implementation of Scalable HL7® FHIR® Consent Resource; 2) Design, Develop, and Demonstrate Enhanced Patient Engagement Technologiesfor Care and Research

PLEASE NOTE: Applications for this funding opportunity are due on Friday, August 17, 2018 per NOFO page 15. Under this announcement, as new emerging issues and vexing problems/challenges are documented, program will call attention to these specific areas of interest for further investigation via a special emphasis notice (SEN). This funding opportunity will have an open application period, where ONC may issue future awards to other eligible applicants for future priority areas of interest to address emerging challenges in the field, via SEN; contingent on the availability of funds and ONC priorities. Any SENs will be issued at least 60 days prior to the due date of applications. - Through the proliferation of new methods and advanced solution that are scalable across the health care industry, this funding opportunity will address well-documented and fast emerging challenges which inhibit the development, use, and/or advancement of well-designed, interoperable health IT.
