Specifically, VA believes that a structured, deliberate, and predictable migration from our custom and proprietary EHR software to an openly architected, modular, and standards-based platform will achieve five crucial objectives:
- It will unleash EHR innovation inside and outside VA.
- It will release VA’s captive dependency on any particular component or service and give our clinicians access to the best available tools and solutions.
- It will reduce the costs and risks of reliable implementation (and integration) of new functional modules that improve VistA’s capabilities.
- It will measurably improve health outcomes for our nation’s Veterans.
- It will enable other providers in the public and private health care system to benefit from, contribute to, and interoperate with this national asset.
