The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) has announced a reorganization to enhance its focus on technology, data, artificial intelligence (AI), and cybersecurity strategy. This consolidates responsibilities for policy and operations under the newly named Assistant Secretary for Technology Policy and Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ASTP/ONC). This move aims to streamline operations, improve governance, and strengthen the department’s capabilities in advancing healthcare technology and cybersecurity. Key roles such as Chief Technology Officer, Chief Data Officer, and Chief AI Officer will now drive HHS’s strategic approach to these critical areas.
Greenlight’s aim aligns with HHS’s goal to improve healthcare through innovative technology and data solutions. Our mission is to streamline healthcare processes and improve patient outcomes through seamless data sharing. By ensuring the secure and efficient exchange of electronic health records (EHR), we empower patients to control their data and help healthcare providers deliver better care. As the healthcare industry evolves, Greenlight continues to provide innovative solutions to enhance healthcare data interoperability.
