Telehealth Funding Opportunities
Funding is research projects that test promising digital healthcare interventions aimed at improving the quality of healthcare services delivery at the point of care. Research should be designed to test promising digital healthcare solutions that enable or facilitate technology-driven, point of care process solutions that use advanced analytics, patient-centered clinician and patient facing digital healthcare technologies, or clinical decision support systems to improve quality and health outcomes at the point of care. A theoretical framework should inform the research study and incorporate the use of care models when appropriate.
