Currently, the nonprofit Sequoia Project manages the agreement. A spokesperson for the HHS said they are staying “intentionally silent” on whether the agency prefers a for-profit or nonprofit vendor.

The Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology will take proposals until June 27, and the next coordinator will start in September.
