(2) Patient-tailored preventive health care plans.
(3) Administrative personal health care consultants for home health maintenance between medical office visits.
(4) Clinical personal health care consultants for telehealth (health information and advice) and wellness initiatives.
(5) A patient portal.
(6) An online virtual health hub that provides patients with access to wellness, self-guided education, health seminars, a video library, and additional health and wellness resources.
(7) Community health and human services centers to engage, educate, and empower patients to get involved in their own self-care.
(8) Mobile preventive health stations and kiosks to bring services to underserved communities that are health or medical deserts.

A request for proposals for the demonstration project shall be issued by December 31, 2022.
