Presidential Innovation Fellows and the Department of Health and Human Services have teamed up to conduct a tech sprint that seeks to improve patients’ experiences and access to health care.
The 14-week sprint that commenced in October aims to convert open data from HHS, Department of Veterans Affairs and other federal agencies into digital platforms, according to a Digital.gov blog post published Friday.
One of the tracks of the program will focus on the development of an ecosystem that aims to use data sets to train and test artificial intelligence tools in order to build up patients’ access to novel treatments.
