The Department of Health is supporting the development of innovative healthcare and diagnostic solutions in response to the Covid-19 virus pandemic. Through technology assessments and agency review, ePCR has been identified as a novel diagnostic capability to enhance diagnostic testing of Covid-19.

The requirements for the ePCR software include direct diagnostic result determination (via computational decision support), instrument automation and information handling, and diagnostic reporting and database solutions.

The Software Provider will enable the Department to support and grow effective high-capacity diagnostic testing of Covid-19, and also assist in expanding the national capacity for epidemiologic surveillance and diagnostic management for other established and novel human health risks.
