President Donald Trump and several key health advisers of his office organized an official event on Wednesday at the White House, which unveils new efforts to improve health care technology and partnerships with technological companies in the private sector.

The event “Make Health Tech Great Again” has implemented a new voluntary commitment by several large health care and technology technology companies to develop a better process of sharing digital health files, which, according to Trump administrative officials, would ultimately improve health results for Americans. In addition to engagement, new health technology efforts will also include the development of personalized tools intended to help patients obtain greater control of their health information to make more informed decisions.

“For decades, American health care networks have been late for high-tech upgrade, and that’s what we do. Existing systems are often slow, expensive and incompatible with each other,” said Trump from the White House at the Wednesday afternoon event. “But with today’s announcement, we take a major step to provide health care in the digital age, which is absolutely vital. We have to do it. Pass clipping tables and faxes in a new era of convenience, profitability and speed and, frankly, better health for people.”

The event announcing the Trump administration plan to advance a “new generation digital health ecosystem”, brought together representatives of companies, notably Apple, Google, Samsung, Amazon, Openai, Anthropic, Epic, Oracle, Athena Health and Noom, which will participate in voluntary commitment to improve the sharing of health recordings. As part of the commitment, companies will “voluntarily” share information between them, according to the Secretary of Health, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., also present at the event on Wednesday.

“For decades, bureaucrats and rooted interests have buried health data and prevented patients from taking control of their health,” the secretary of the Ministry of Health and Social Services said Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. in a statement before the event on Wednesday. “It ends today. We demolish digital walls, return power to patients and rebuild a health system that serves people. This is how we start making America healthy.”

The Trump administration is associated with more than 60 companies to strengthen how health information is electronically shared, including by using applications and strengthening the interoperability of health information networks, according to the centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS).

Applications aim to solve problems such as diabetes and obesity management, and offer beneficiaries of AI assistants to browse symptoms, provide care options and help plan. Other functions that technology aims to resolve is to provide digital records to rationalize services and reduce paper intake forms.

“This gives (patients) a sense of responsibility and allows them to measure interventions if they change their diet, if they change their exercise, this can show you how many measures you have taken today, this can tell you if your glucose is doping, and all this information will now be available for American citizens,” Kennedy said on Wednesday.

The White House event is monitoring of the request for information that the CMS published in May asking information from the stakeholders on the means to strengthen the interoperability of health technologies.

Other technological advances on the health front include CMS plans to launch an application library on Medicare.gov For the best direct beneficiaries to the right digital health tools, according to CMS.

“The average Americans are tired. They are tired of waiting for an appointment with the doctor. They are tired of waiting for the surprise of what your hospital bill is going to offer. This is addressed,” added Dr. Mehmet Oz, the CMS administrator.

“They are tired of waiting for access to their medical records. You have your medical records, they are yours. Why you cannot have access to it is an amazing reality in modern America,” continued Oz. “They are also tired of waiting for Washington to take measures. And this president was earlier that it was no longer going to happen. And today we have made this vision a reality.”
