PARCA eNews – May 10, 2020 – With the COVID-19 outbreak spreading across the country like wildfire, healthcare IT professionals have jumped in with both feet developing more than 95 COVID-19 interoperability projects in just a few short weeks. 

As part to the Office of the National Coordinator’s Interoperability Proving Ground, the subset of interoperability projects focused specifically on COVID-19 mushroomed with projects ranging from care coordination tracking programs to COVID patient monitoring and tracking projects to assessment tools for determining whether a person should be tested along with links to the person’s local health authority for testing.

One project provides a mobile tool to help healthcare providers treat more patients, more quickly under surge conditions such as a pandemic.
