- What it does
- The Advance Interoperable Health IT Services to Support Health Information Exchange Cooperative Agreement Program will leverage investments and lessons learned from the previous State Health Information Exchange Cooperative Agreement Program (State HIE Program) to rapidly build capacity for the interoperable exchange of health information across the entire care continuum both within and across states while moving toward nationwide interoperability. Grantees will seek to improve care coordination and enhance communication among both clinical and non-clinical care providers across the entire care continuum by: 1) Expanding the adoption of health information exchange technology tools, services, and policies that enable interoperable exchange; 2) Facilitating and enabling send, receive, find, and use capabilities to access health information from external sources and incorporate into care provider workflows; 3) Increase integration of health information in interoperable health IT to support care processes and decision making.

How to read these numbers
- Committed through this program
Money committed under this assistance listing (its CFDA program), counted in the year each action happened.
- How it's paid
Most programs pay out one way — a grant, or a direct payment to individuals; the flow bar only appears when a program genuinely mixes types.
- Some recipients aren't itemized
For entitlement programs like Social Security and Medicare, the government reports one aggregate instead of naming tens of millions of people, so the recipient roster isn't part of the public record.
- Awards, counted once
An award count is the number of distinct awards with at least one action that year — each counted once, however many times it was amended.
- The colored bars
Every bar on this page splits by how the money moves:
