Following on two previous successful Internet2 Health Initiative Workshops, Internet2 is pleased to announce the 3rd Health Initiative Workshop. This meeting will bring together individuals interested in using advanced networks in health care, focusing on the FCC Rural Health Care Pilot Program (RHCPP) participants that will be connecting to the Internet2 Network. Workshop participants can expect this all-day event to include panels and other presentations related participant experiences as well as representatives from several federal agencies describing how the agencies are supporting health care.
Providing connectivity to health networks across the country under the Health Network Initiative is a natural extension of Internet2's existing network capabilities and complements its members' ongoing work in the health sciences arena. The Internet2 Network links high-speed state and regional research and education networks to connect close to 50,000 research and education institutions and extends robust capabilities that are uniquely suited for healthcare and health applications.
