KCI’s work on the nine-jurisdiction Inter-County
Broadband Network (ICBN) supports the connectivity
of 700 community anchor institutions that could
reduce regional disparities in education through
distance learning opportunities, and improving public
health through the availability of tele-medicine,
patient tracking in mass casualty events, and access
to secure, online medical records. Each jurisdiction
has chosen the facilities to be connected. Baltimore
