MITRE Grand Challenges Power Hour: A Call to Action - A National Strategy for Digital Health
MITRE and its Health Advisory Committee issued an urgent “Call to Action” for a National Strategy for Digital Health. It provides a national set of priorities to guide the multitude of innovators towards common goals and priority outcomes. We are at an inflection point—digital health capabilities are redefining the delivery of healthcare, management of public health, and our understanding of health itself. We need to think strategically to ensure the health and wellbeing of our people and eliminate health disparities. Creating a digital health ecosystem that delivers timely access to information is essential in informing public health decision-making and empowering individuals to make the rights choices for their health. Join MITRE on August 5th to discuss the key public-private partnerships needed to further develop and implement a National Strategy for Digital Health.
