The Department of Health and Human Services, where the National Institutes of Health and the National Institute of Nursing Research are administered, serves as the primary provider of vital human services in the US, especially to those citizens who are financially challenged and are least capable of helping themselves.

The Mobile Health (mHealth )Tools program is a rather essential project to the Department of Health and Human Services because it enables patients from underrepresented areas to avail of the systems of care in urban areas where most of the country's medical specialists practice medicine. Thereby eventually paving the way to a better diagnosis and treatment process in chronically ill patients.
