With dozens of programs across its divisions, HHS has restructured its AI strategy around three coordinated&nbsp;pillars: regulation,&nbsp;reimbursement&nbsp;and research\/development.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Historically fragmented&nbsp;efforts&nbsp;created conflicting signals and&nbsp;limited cross-agency innovation.&nbsp;Now, the Secretary\u2019s office serves&nbsp;as an&nbsp;alignment layer, ensuring regulatory&nbsp;decisions at the Food and Drug Administration (FDA),&nbsp;reimbursement policies&nbsp;at the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) and research investments at the Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health (ARPA-H)&nbsp;are coordinated.&nbsp;The goal is not&nbsp;to&nbsp;expand&nbsp;Government roles, but to remove barriers and&nbsp;accelerate&nbsp;adoption&nbsp;of&nbsp;existing&nbsp;technologies.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The FDA&nbsp;is rethinking how AI-enabled medical technologies are regulated.&nbsp;After&nbsp;authorizing&nbsp;more than 1,000 AI and machine learning products,&nbsp;primarily&nbsp;in radiology but expanding into other domains, the agency&nbsp;recognizes&nbsp;the limits of a pre-market framework designed for static hardware, not continuously&nbsp;evolving software. Leaders described a shift toward lighter pre-market&nbsp;review paired with stronger&nbsp;post-market surveillance, focusing on real-world&nbsp;performance, model&nbsp;drift&nbsp;and patient outcomes.&nbsp;This&nbsp;approach&nbsp;requires new regulatory frameworks and&nbsp;enhanced&nbsp;data-sharing&nbsp;between developers,&nbsp;providers&nbsp;and&nbsp;regulators.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>ARPA-H complements this work&nbsp;by funding high-risk, high-reward&nbsp;innovations&nbsp;not&nbsp;supported&nbsp;through&nbsp;traditional&nbsp;mechanisms.&nbsp;Notably,&nbsp;no&nbsp;generative AI (GenAI) technology capable of providing clinical care has received FDA&nbsp;authorization,&nbsp;a gap the agency&nbsp;aims&nbsp;to close. One flagship initiative supports&nbsp;AI&nbsp;systems&nbsp;capable of performing&nbsp;comprehensive&nbsp;physician&nbsp;functions, developed&nbsp;alongside&nbsp;the&nbsp;FDA to&nbsp;establish&nbsp;new regulatory pathways.&nbsp;Additionally, ARPA-H is investing in \u201csupervising agents,\u201d&nbsp;systems that&nbsp;monitor&nbsp;and control&nbsp;deployed&nbsp;AI, addressing the&nbsp;scalability limits of&nbsp;human oversight.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The VIP Sets a New National Standard for Health Data Exchange\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The&nbsp;Department of Veterans Affairs (VA)&nbsp;positioned&nbsp;itself as a national convener&nbsp;for&nbsp;interoperability&nbsp;through&nbsp;the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.va.gov\/health\/veteran-interoperability-pledge.asp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-track=\"HIMSS Blog 2026 - VIP\">Veteran Interoperability Pledge (VIP)<\/a>, which&nbsp;unites leading health systems to improve&nbsp;care coordination&nbsp;for&nbsp;veterans&nbsp;regardless of where&nbsp;they receive&nbsp;care.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Grounded&nbsp;in the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.congress.gov\/118\/plaws\/publ210\/PLAW-118publ210.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-track=\"HIMSS Blog 2026 - Elizabeth Dole Act\">Elizabeth Dole Act<\/a>, the&nbsp;initiative mandates rapid&nbsp;adoption&nbsp;of&nbsp;national interoperability standards across care coordination, benefits, identity matching, quality&nbsp;measurement&nbsp;and public health. VA leaders&nbsp;outlined a&nbsp;layered&nbsp;interoperability&nbsp;model\u2014from foundational standards such as&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/x12.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-track=\"HIMSS Blog 2026 - X12\">X12<\/a>,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.fhir.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-track=\"HIMSS Blog 2026 - FHIR\">Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR) and Bulk FHIR<\/a>,&nbsp;to data quality frameworks like&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/piqiframework.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-track=\"HIMSS Blog 2026 - PIQI\">Patient Information Quality Improvement&nbsp;(PIQI)<\/a>&nbsp;and&nbsp;ultimately to&nbsp;advanced analytics and&nbsp;decision support.&nbsp;The&nbsp;key&nbsp;message: interoperability is foundational,&nbsp;but&nbsp;value is created through&nbsp;what is built on top of it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Operationally, the VIP is&nbsp;already enabling real-world&nbsp;capabilities.

CMS is transitioning from Government-developed systems&nbsp;to commercial platforms, accelerating&nbsp;innovation&nbsp;and enabling AI tools that now reach approximately 80% of its workforce,&nbsp;saving an estimated 5.5 hours per employee weekly. The agency is also&nbsp;adopting a&nbsp;multicloud&nbsp;strategy&nbsp;for&nbsp;resilience&nbsp;and fostering&nbsp;talent pipelines&nbsp;through&nbsp;partnerships with institutions like&nbsp;the University of Maryland.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>IHS&nbsp;is&nbsp;undergoing a similar&nbsp;transition to commercial&nbsp;platforms, improving&nbsp;AI&nbsp;integration&nbsp;and&nbsp;expanding&nbsp;access&nbsp;to&nbsp;advanced&nbsp;tools&nbsp;in&nbsp;rural and tribal communities.&nbsp;Enterprise services&nbsp;help ensure&nbsp;equitable&nbsp;access&nbsp;where local&nbsp;technical resources&nbsp;are limited.&nbsp;The VA is&nbsp;modernizing&nbsp;security processes to reduce&nbsp;delays in&nbsp;technology adoption&nbsp;and&nbsp;leveraging&nbsp;physical locations&nbsp;to support&nbsp;identity verification, improving access&nbsp;for veterans&nbsp;struggling with&nbsp;digital&nbsp;enrollment.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bridging the digital divide also requires workforce and literacy&nbsp;solutions. Baltimore City panelists&nbsp;highlighted&nbsp;the need to&nbsp;translate Federal&nbsp;data into&nbsp;local&nbsp;action,&nbsp;particularly around&nbsp;social determinants of health,&nbsp;including housing&nbsp;and&nbsp;economic mobility. Community health workers were cited as essential connectors and&nbsp;should be integrated&nbsp;into digital strategies from the outset.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Public Health Data Infrastructure Must Shift from Detection to Prediction\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Center for Disease Control (CDC) acknowledged&nbsp;that&nbsp;current&nbsp;public health infrastructure&nbsp;is&nbsp;designed for&nbsp;detection, not&nbsp;prediction.&nbsp;While improvements have been made since&nbsp;COVID-19, a broader transformation is still underway.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cdc.gov\/data-modernization\/php\/one-cdc-data-platform\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-track=\"HIMSS Blog 2026 - 1CDP\">One CDC Data Platform (1CDP)<\/a>&nbsp;serves&nbsp;as a&nbsp;central hub, enabling&nbsp;flexible&nbsp;data&nbsp;exchange, reusable&nbsp;capabilities&nbsp;and advanced analytics. Its purpose is&nbsp;to&nbsp;shift&nbsp;focus&nbsp;from manual data&nbsp;processing&nbsp;to&nbsp;proactive&nbsp;analysis&nbsp;and decision making. Leaders&nbsp;envision disease forecasting becoming as routine as weather forecasting, with real-time modeling to guide early intervention.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>State-level&nbsp;examples illustrate&nbsp;this shift.&nbsp;Illinois is&nbsp;consolidating&nbsp;siloed systems&nbsp;into a&nbsp;unified cloud platform, while&nbsp;addressing cultural resistance to data sharing. Louisiana is&nbsp;focusing&nbsp;on targeted,&nbsp;use-case-driven&nbsp;improvements&nbsp;tied to&nbsp;Medicaid&nbsp;and&nbsp;public health&nbsp;outcomes. Mississippi is&nbsp;prioritizing foundational infrastructure&nbsp;and&nbsp;workforce readiness before&nbsp;scaling&nbsp;analytics. Across all three states, the consensus is&nbsp;clear&nbsp;that&nbsp;interoperability only delivers value when&nbsp;tied&nbsp;to&nbsp;actionable&nbsp;outcomes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The VA\u2019s NextGen CCN Redesigns Care Delivery at National Scale\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Community care&nbsp;is&nbsp;one of the fastest-growing components of the VA healthcare system.&nbsp;Of the&nbsp;17 million veterans&nbsp;served,&nbsp;roughly 6.3&nbsp;million use&nbsp;VA healthcare&nbsp;annually, with&nbsp;2-3&nbsp;million accessing community providers. Programs introduced through the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.congress.gov\/crs-product\/R45390\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-track=\"HIMSS Blog 2026 - MISSION Act\">Choice Act and Maintaining Internal Systems and Strengthening Integrated Outside Networks (MISSION) Act<\/a>&nbsp;expanded&nbsp;access but&nbsp;created&nbsp;operational&nbsp;and&nbsp;financial complexity.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/thecgp.org\/images\/2026\/01\/OALC-Conf-Presentation_CCN_20260115-3.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-track=\"HIMSS Blog 2026 - NextGen CCN\">Next Generation Community Care Network (NextGen CCN)<\/a>&nbsp;addresses these challenges through&nbsp;a comprehensive redesign of how the VA&nbsp;manages&nbsp;external&nbsp;care.&nbsp;Expected to&nbsp;launch in early 2027,&nbsp;the program introduces a more competitive&nbsp;ecosystem involving insurers,&nbsp;providers&nbsp;and&nbsp;technology&nbsp;partners.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Key&nbsp;capabilities&nbsp;include&nbsp;improved care coordination, real-time data exchange, standardized quality&nbsp;benchmarks&nbsp;and outcomes-based&nbsp;reimbursement.&nbsp;Interoperability is foundational to these goals, enabling performance&nbsp;measurement and accountability.&nbsp;The program also prioritizes&nbsp;transparency and trust across&nbsp;stakeholders, ensuring a shared&nbsp;understanding&nbsp;of&nbsp;care delivery.&nbsp;Together, these efforts are designed to position the VA to deliver high-quality, fiscally responsible care while continuing to expand access for a veteran population whose demographics and care needs are rapidly evolving.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Charting the Course for Federal Health IT Modernization\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>HIMSS 2026 reinforced that progress in Federal healthcare requires&nbsp;aligned&nbsp;investment across AI governance, interoperability, cross-agency collaboration, data&nbsp;infrastructure&nbsp;and care delivery redesign. Government health agencies are not simply&nbsp;adding&nbsp;new technologies&nbsp;onto existing&nbsp;systems;&nbsp;they are rethinking how they organize, share&nbsp;data&nbsp;and&nbsp;operate&nbsp;as an integrated ecosystem.&nbsp;Sustained success will depend on aligned standards, cultural&nbsp;transformation&nbsp;and technologies that translate strategy into measurable outcomes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As 探花视频, The Trusted Government IT Solutions Provider\u2122, continues supporting Federal health IT modernization, these&nbsp;insights inform how industry
