Health Information Technology is highlighted in the Fiscal Year 2024 budget.
The President's 2024 budget request for HHS is $144 Billion, a $14.8 Billion increase from 2023. The funds will go towards innovative ways to boost cancer research, modernizing public health data systems and enhancing data access to address health disparities and improve food safety.
The budget includes funding for the following:
- Accelerating technology to improve cancer detection and research
- Pursuing innovative health research and accelerating advancements for cancer treatment and prevention
- Modernizing public health data systems and better preparing them for future health emergencies
- Creating a Public Health Emergency Fund to ensure HHS has the capability to respond faster to emerging public health threats
- Collecting and evaluating sociodemographic data to address health disparities
No one is in a better position to help agencies award Health IT requirements than NITAAC.
Our three Best in Class (BIC) Government-Wide Acquisition Contract (GWAC) vehicles for information technology products, services and solutions can be used by any federal agency, civilian or DOD. Orders are awarded and managed through a fast, web-based Electronic Government Ordering System (e-GOS) for efficient research, competition and awards.
NITAAC has pre-screened and pre-qualified its Contract Holders for over 25 years to assure they have health IT expertise. They’ve faced contractual tasks like those currently required in CIO-SP3 and CIO-SP3 Small Business, Task Area1: IT Services for Biomedical Research, Health Sciences and Healthcare. And, while some of the technologies we represent are health specific, most are of such a general nature that we can offer them to all federal clients.
