"If an individual, an entrant must be a citizen of or permanent resident of the United States". You have already lost 96% of contestants who could have contributed.

This is badly needed. Appointments can take longer than two weeks. For example, if a veteran has PTSD and cannot get immediate care when they're experiencing an anxiety attack that lasts for more than a day, it can result in extreme consequences such as suicide.

Leaving plenty of qualified people in the 4%, and avoiding a "government gives our jobs to India" PR disaster.
This is a ridiculously open-ended spec, and there's a mountain of federal legislation to comply with. I might go as far as to say that it's a reckless way to try to procure software, as it's very much a product which needs to work and be supported over the long term, not some sort of black-box AI quick win.
As an anecdote, I work on a medical information system for emergency rooms. The VA uses our system in some locations. Federal regulations are not at all onerous. Things like HIPAA are dealt with using a few really basic rules.

Shame, I have a lot of spare time and I'd be up for an interesting project (not sure if this qualifies, I've only skimmed it).
