波士顿，大众。--研究人员波士顿儿童医院哈佛医学院将带领1500万美元资助的努力最近宣布从国家卫生信息技术协调员办公室（ONC）在卫生和人类服务部（HHS）支持的一种新的医疗信息技术基础设施的研究与开发。补助金是四个获得通过战略健康高级研究项目（尖）程序来通过和健康有意义的关键挑战是由2009美国复苏与再投资法案的资助。

The platform architecture, described as a "SMArt" (Substitutable Medical Applications, reusable technologies) architecture, will provide core services and support extensively networked data from across the health system, as well as facilitate substitutable applications - enabling the equivalent of the iTunes App Store for health。 This will stand in stark contrast to the way health information systems have been designed and implemented to date，和 will encourage evolution, competition, innovation and efficiency in health care and technology。

这种新的健康信息基础设施的方法是一个重点六月2009工作组会议哈佛医学院生物医学信息中心十月2009次会议which brought together more than 100 key stakeholders across academia, government and industry in an exploration of innovative ways to transform the national health IT system。

智能平台将为“应用程序商店”提供一个通用的接口该开放源码的个人健康记录的控制平台的芯片组十多年前开发的，以及开源平台的其他分包商创造了在ONC格兰特：医疗系统的合作伙伴的i2b2analytic platform and the Regenstrief Institute's CareWeb EHR。

Organizations across the health ecosystem will partner with the research team on efforts to translate their solutions into real-world practice。
