In early May, the Office of National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC) at HHS announced awards of $220 million to 15 Beacon Communities across the nation to demonstrate a future where hospitals, clinicians, and patients use health IT in different ways to reform health care delivery within their communities and achieve meaningful and measurable improvements in health care quality, safety, and efficiency to benefit patients and taxpayers.  

 

Today, we are pleased to announce a new round of two additional Beacon awards totaling $30.3 million. To view the new Beacon funding opportunity, please visit http://healthit.hhs.gov/beacon.

 

We look forward to welcoming our two new Beacon Communities into the program.
