Leading Edge Acceleration Projects (LEAP) in Health Information Technology: Through the proliferation of new methods and advanced solution that are scalable across the health care industry, this funding opportunity will address well-documented and fast emerging challenges which inhibit the development, use, and/or advancement of well-designed, interoperable health IT. New approaches are expected to further a new generation of health IT development and inform the implementation and refinement of standards, methods, and techniques for overcoming major barriers and challenges in an innovative fashion as they are identified. It is critical that the field of health care innovate and leverage the latest technological advancements and breakthroughs far quicker than it currently does to optimize real-time solutions, especially in areas which are ripe for acceleration. This funding opportunity is specifically interested in innovative solutions and breakthrough advances in the following areas of interest: • Expanding the scope, scale, and utility of population-level data-focused APIs; and • Advancing clinical knowledge at the point of care.
