Request for Proposals: Patient Education Tablet Kiosks Program

Tablet kiosks allow patients and their caregivers to easily access their Personal Health Records (if available) and a wide variety of health-related educational resources.
Interested practices are strongly encouraged to submit their RFP responses by the first phase deadline of this RFP as additional tablet kiosks will not be awarded if all funds are expended during the first phase of this program.
