MITRE Telemedicine Innovation Challenge

Purpose

On behalf of our Federal Sponsor, MITRE is hosting a Telemedicine Innovation Challenge for medical certification examinations. This is an opportunity for innovators including provider organizations and telemedicine vendors to demonstrate how telemedicine technologies can be used by a physician or other health care provider to conduct a standardized medical history and physical examination. Telemedicine technologies can include video conferencing and data transmission capabilities as well as medical devices and measurement apps. This innovation challenge will help our Federal Sponsor to evaluate opportunities for improving their methods used to conduct medical examinations.
