FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Doris Lefkowitz, AHRQ Reports Clearance Officer, (301) 427–1477, or by e-mail at doris.lefkowitz@ahrq.hhs.gov SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: AHRQ proposed a three year project to (1) assess the challenges facing Medicaid and State Children’s Health Insurance Programs (SCHIP) agencies nationwide as they plan and implement health information technology (health IT) and health information exchange (HIE) programs and (2) provide the agencies with technical assistance to help them overcome these challenges. Health IT refers to the set of electronic tools and methods used for managing information about the health and health care of individuals, groups of individuals, and communities. HIE refers to organized efforts at the local, state, or regional levels to establish the necessary policy, business, operating, and technical mechanisms and structures that allow, support, and promote the exchange of health care information electronically across organizations. Health IT and HIE hold great promise for improving the quality and efficiency of health care in the PO 00000 Frm 00062 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 United States. Medicaid and SCHIP agencies, which receive federal and state funding, serve the most medically and financially vulnerable populations. More than sixty percent of Medicaid beneficiaries have one or more chronic or disabling diseases. In addition, Medicaid and SCHIP beneficiaries frequently experience gaps in eligibility for benefits that cause beneficiaries to seek care from multiple settings, which compromises the accuracy and completeness of their health care records. These populations have much to gain from the coordination of care that can be realized from the adoption of health IT and HIE. Furthermore, as the largest health care purchaser in the United States, Medicaid can influence the adoption of health IT and HIE by providers of care. However, Medicaid and SCHIP agencies face considerable challenges in the implementation of health IT and HIE (Alfreds ST, Tutty M, Savageau JA, Young S. Himmelstein J (2006–2007). ‘‘Clinical Health Information Technologies and the Role of Medicaid.’’ Health Care Financing Review Vol. 28, No. 2, pp. 11–20.). A needs assessment of the Medicaid and SCHIP agencies in all fifty six states and territories, including the District of Columbia, will be conducted to gauge the need for technical assistance. The needs assessment will be updated in the second year of the project to assure that the program of technical assistance that is developed will be of maximum utility to the Medicaid and SCHIP agencies. AHRQ will develop and provide a wide range of technical assistance E:\FR\FM\20FEN1.SGM 20FEN1
