DESCRIPTION

The government authority in Pierre, South Dakota, is seeking a vendor to provide rural modernization infrastructure and sustainability grant services through a statewide initiative focused on enhancing rural healthcare systems and improving access to quality care.

The scope also includes IT infrastructure development with required upgrades for real-time monitoring, streamlined payment processes, and system interoperability between provider electronic health records (EHR) and state reporting systems.
