Veteran care will improve with Federal EHR updates
Health care for veterans is expected to see improvements due to recent updates. The Department of Veterans Affairs now has access to a record of service members' health exposures. This information can be used to inform clinical decisions and assess claims.
The updates were made to the Federal Electronic Health Record. Data from the Individual Longitudinal Exposure Record is now available at certain sites. Further details about the updates and their impact are available from the Department of Veterans Affairs.
