An Air Force Medical Service project to host, manage and analyze health data received a 2018 FedHealthIT Innovation Award, June 12, 2018. The AFMS Digital Biobank seeks to link genomic data collected by the Air Force to other Military Health System and Department of Veteran Affairs heath databases, using a cloud solution. This enables precision medicine and integrate genomic data in health care, helping AFMS researchers and clinicians improve patient care, reduce medical costs, and improve health and readiness of service members and beneficiaries. The FedHealthIT Innovation Awards recognize federal health innovation, technology and consulting sector programs across multiple federal agencies. Awardees are selected by their peers for driving innovation and results in federal health information technology. (Courtesy photo by FedHealthIT)
