From Low-Code to Lifesaving Care: Inside the Tech Overhaul Reshaping Federal Healthcare

This episode of Fed Gov Today dives deep into how federal agencies are rethinking technology modernization—with speed, reuse, and trust at the center of the mission. Kicking things off, EY’s George Kaczmarskyj explains why low-code application platforms (LCAPs) are becoming a powerful tool for government transformation. Originally popularized in the financial sector, low-code platforms allow agencies to move faster from idea to production, address developer shortages, and deliver consistent user experiences across systems. Kaczmarskyj highlights how pre-built integrations can dramatically reduce risk in complex environments like HR and financial systems, where thousands of connections create opportunities for failure. Looking ahead, he points to artificial intelligence as a force multiplier—boosting productivity across the software development lifecycle and even reducing long-term vendor lock-in. The conversation then shifts to healthcare modernization at the Department of Health and Human Services, with HRSA Administrator Tom Engels outlining the agency’s expansive mission. HRSA supports more than 32 million patients annually, many in rural, underserved, and medically vulnerable communities. Engels details how HRSA is modernizing technology while keeping people at the center—expanding telehealth, improving electronic health record interoperability, and making innovation affordable for resource-constrained providers. Engels also discusses HRSA’s role in major administration priorities, including rural healthcare investment, maternal health, ending the HIV epidemic, and the “Make America Healthy Again” initiative. A key focus is modernizing the Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network to restore trust, integrity, and fairness through better oversight and new technology. Throughout the episode, one theme is clear: smart tech modernization—done right—can directly improve outcomes, dignity, and trust for millions of Americans.
