CHALLENGE: Data is one of the largest challenges facing Healthcare organizations and patients. Secure data exchange between systems – even within the same organization - is not easily available. This creates massive inefficiencies and liabilities in our healthcare system as well as stifles our ability to provide better experiences and better patient care. Your challenge: simplify healthcare pricing or offer patients insights into their health through simplified data exchange using the FHIR API and Azure’s AI and cognitive services. Use the full power of the Microsoft Cloud (Dynamics, Office, and Azure) and leverage our tech evangelists, data evangelists, and app developers to help guide your team to the Cloud to Hack HLTH through data.

PRIZE: Winners will qualify to participate in the MIT Hackathon in April.  You will get access to early-stage venture capitalists to pitch. 
CHALLENGE: 
Virtual reality and augmented reality for redesigning healthcare experiences. 
Amid a shortage of doctors and nurses across many specialties, and around the globe, we need the care to engage patients where they are, in life and in the world, and that requires virtual asynchronous care. 
Robots and chatbots can augment real-world care, and it can reach people with lower cost, more frequent touches and have already been shown to improve care, pain management, PTSD, social anxiety, diabetes. We will show you how in healthcare areas, that teams at HLTH are passionate about. 
The challenge that we will help you with is to identify business models and the economic buyers that are willing to pay for this virtual care.

PRIZE: The challenge winners will be awarded a 6-month UCSF CDHI remote residency*, allowing them to work with some of our UCSF faculty and staff to advance their solution.  The winner will be given access to UCSF’s EHR sandbox, a development EHR environment that mimics our production EHR, for a period of 6 months to demonstrate a Proof of Concept of their solution.  During that time frame, UCSF CDHI will pair you with a faculty member sponsor, and you will have access to our clinical faculty, data scientists, and/or technologists to provide feedback and advice.  During your residency and upon successful completion of the POC, CDHI will provide guidance on potential commercialization pathways in partnership with UCSF.
* must meet all regulatory compliance and eligibility requirements
CHALLENGE: In March 2019, the Office of the National Coordinator for Health IT and Centers for Medicare &amp; Medicaid Services released draft regulations which would require providers and payers to integrate and use open, standardized FHIR-based APIs in order to advance interoperability among all stakeholders and support access, exchange, and use of electronic health information. The UCSF Center for Digital Health Innovation (CDHI) provided the ONC and CMS our recommendations on how best to implement these and other future healthcare standards. In our public comment letter, CDHI recommended enabling EHR write API’s, standardized API's on FHIR Release 4, and enable FHIR access to payor data.  
For this challenge, pick an important use case for the digital health ecosystem, and create an app, algorithm, or tool that leverages our “sandbox” environment to demonstrate what digital tools can be built with these APIs or data.
