Internet2 Health Network Initiative: Corporate Involvement
The Internet2 community works together to foster and facilitate collaborations between individuals and organizations to take advantage of advanced networking, technology, and process. This philosophy is important to the health and networking communities that are working to bring the vision of the FCC Rural Health Pilot Program to life.
FCC Rural Health Care Pilot Program (RHCPP) participants and other interested organizations will find an active community within Internet2 Health Network Initiative. The Internet2 member roster contains a far-reaching network of organizations that can provide valuable expertise and advice. There is a strong interest from the Internet2 Corporate Member Community to support and provide vital services to the FCC RHCPP participants. In addition we encourage others to inquire about participation in this initiative.
