Bind your stakeholders to you◦ Give them real but clearly defined authority
Find your champions◦ Who in new administration will be over ehealth?
Break down internal silos◦ What need can you fill?
Non-recurring funding works◦ Recurring is better but can be much less
Dedicate staff solely to the project Be responsive and flexible to change
