While the incidence and prevalence of these cancers are widespread as depicted by this data, dispari/es in preven/on, early treatment, quality of care, and outcomes result in higher morbidity and mortality rates among minority and underserved women.
The Challenge
• The Challenge calls on sohware developers to create an applica/on for mobile devices, in mul/ple languages, that can help underserved and minority women fight and prevent cancer.
• Providing general informa/on regarding preven/ve and screening services for breast and gynecologic cancers—including, but not limited to, benefits, /ming, scheduling, and loca/on.
• Allowing for the interface with pa/ent health records or provider-‐sponsored pa/ent portals to provide specific reminders and trigger electronic health record-‐based clinical decision support regarding the /ming of preven/ve services.
Office of the Na/onal Coordinator for Health Informa/on Technology 11
• Suppor/ng the storage, viewing, and even the exchange of complex pa/ent care plans. In par/cular, the applica/on will help strengthen communica/on among provider care teams, possibly spread out across large geographic loca/ons, to afford op/mal remote follow-‐up (e.g. be able to send pa/ent informa/on to electronic health records via Direct, hZp://directproject.org/).
• Suppor/ng pa/ent engagement and care giver support with applica/ons that help pa/ents and/or their caregivers keep track of complex care plans, such as connec/ons to community health workers, promotores de salud, or pa/ent navigators.
