One important focus of the PMA is enhancing and securing government information technology as a vital support function and critical catalyst for mission delivery. The PMA is grounded in a vision of equitable, effective, and accountable government that delivers results for all Americans. Health equity and combating disease outbreaks is of particular importance for years to come. Using data as a strategic asset, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) can further protect the health of Americans while improving health equity, controlling disease outbreaks, and enhancing the Nation's healthcare system through fostering advancements in science. At this time, HHS is continuously seeking opportunities to accelerate and promote the development of health IT interoperability for better exchange of information across the healthcare continuum. Join this session to learn how HHS leaders are working to protect the health and well-being of Americans while advancing the PMA.

Potential topics include:

• How can technology modernization and digital transformation help in achieving health equity.
• How HHS OPDIVs can overcome current health IT interoperability challenges and other barriers to achieve program outcomes and improve customer experience.
• The role of emerging technologies and data science to support the PMA goals and Federal statutes and mandates.
• What HHS is doing to achieve the PMA objectives and leveraging inter-agency efforts of collaborations and "Communities of Practice".
