What A Concept: VA Pitches Its Electronic Health Records System To Defense

The Defense Department went shopping for a new electronic health record system on Feb. 8, just two days after plans to develop a $4 billion integrated electronic health record with the Veterans Affairs Department went south.

The Military Health System, in a notice to industry, said it wanted to deploy an electronic health record “with the most capability in the shortest period of time for the least cost.” Responses were due Wednesday.
