“Today, we’re seeing new programs funded by the stimulus play a pivotal role in health information technology development plus we’re seeing how the healthcare reform legislation is going to impact health technology,” according to Editor Carolyn Bloch. “In fact, with the additional funding plus agency appropriations, many agency programs that were previously underfunded are now up and running.”

The 250 page edition of the “Activities in Telemedicine Telehealth and Health Technology (2011) report describes how agencies are organized along with many ongoing activities relevant to the field. The report points out numerous grant and contract programs that can give individuals and industry new ideas for further business development.
