With this, the program will be able to expedite and customize the provision of telehealth technical assistance services throughout the country, while simultaneously working towards the availability of a wide range of expertise that might not be readily available in any existing community.

The program seeks to solicit applications from entities who have already manifested formidable experience in providing technical assistance with regards to the development of sustainable telehealth programs.

In addition, the program also aims to facilitate the successful dissemination of health-related information, the effective collaboration and communication between health care providers, and finally, the promotion of the integration of new technologies used in clinical information systems with other telehealth technologies.

The Telehealth Resource Center Grant Program intends to financially support up the creation of up to five Telehealth Resource Centers by administering funds in the amount of $1,625,000.

The organizations and institutions who will be eligible to submit an application under this program are the following:

a) Non-profit organizations

b) Faith-based organizations

c) Community-based organizations

d) Tribal nonprofit organizations

The Department of Health and Human Services, the mother agency that is funding the Telehealth Resource Center Grant Program, is the federal government's leading agency that is responsible for protecting the health of all Americans through the provision of essential human services to all, giving utmost priority to the vulnerable and to the medically uninsured.
