VistA Evolution Program Plan

<p>'The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) and the Department of Defense (DoD) are working together to fundamentally and positively impact the health outcomes of Veterans, Service members, and their dependents. Achieving interoperability of health records between the two Departments is the chief goal motivating the Departmentsï¿½ electronic health record (EHR) efforts. Seamless integration of health data from VA, DoD, and other healthcare partners enables clinicians and patients to benefit from the availability of a complete longitudinal health record, achieving the goal of developing electronic records that will transition along with them from active-duty to retired status.The Departments are on complementary paths for modernizing their respective EHR systems, replacing or enhancing existing systems as required to support delivery of the best possible care in their particular environments. For its part, VA will enhance, or evolve, its Veterans Health Information Systems and Technology Architecture (VistA) EHR to achieve its interoperability, clinical, and technical objectives. This VistA Evolution Program Plan captures VAï¿½s structured approach to executing this mission.'</p>

Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA) Repository

<p>This repository contains Privacy Impact Assessments (PIA) that have been vetted/approved. Section 208 of the Electronic Government Act of 2002 (E-Gov Act) requires federal agencies to conduct a Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA) on information technology systems that either (1) collect, maintain, and/or disseminate Personally Identifiable Information (PII); or (2) make substantial changes to existing technology that manages PII.. A PIA is an analysis of how PII is collected, stored, protected, shared, and managed. Its purpose is to demonstrate that the information system owners and/or developers have incorporated privacy protections throughout the lifecycle of the system. Absent a legitimate security or sensitivity concern demonstrated by the agency, the E-Gov Act requires agencies to make PIAs publicly available.The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Office of Privacy, FOIA, and Records Management strive to be the leader among Federal Information Technology (IT) organizations in protecting the privacy of Veterans' personal data. Our goal is to respond to mandates to meet the needs of Veterans, while improving the protection of their personal information.To view a PIA for a particular system, go to the heading labeled 'System Operating with a Current/Valid FY2013 PIA' and select the name of the program/project of interest.</p>

Research and Development Information System (RDIS)

<p>The Research and Development Information System (RDIS) is the Veterans Affairs Central Office budgetary and project data repository for managing the VA Research and Development Program. The RDIS contains data collected from Veterans Affairs Medical Centers (VAMCs) on all VA research projects. It stores information on VAMC investigators, project budget allocations and expenditures, initial project abstracts, progress reports and research space. VA Medical Centers collect and submit the data using an application called electronic Project Management and Information System (ePROMISE). That data is submitted to Veterans Affairs Central Office and becomes a component of RDIS. ePROMISE collects data from over 150 VA facilities (including 75 VAMCs). VA funded, non-VA funded and non-funded research proposals are reviewed and must be approved by the Research and Development (R&amp;D) Committee and relevant R&amp;D Subcommittees (Human Studies, Animal Use, and/or Biosafety) at each VAMC. Basic information on research projects approved by the VAMC Research and Development committee is transmitted to the RDIS, which tracks the life cycle of these projects.</p>

Traumatic Brain Injury Registry (TBI)

<p>As the number of Operation Enduring Freedom/Operation Iraqi Freedom (OEF/OIF) Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) patients has grown, so has the need to track and monitor care to meet the lifelong needs of these veterans.  In March 2007, a Computerized Patient Record System (CPRS) OIF/OEF TBI Screening Reminder was released.  This is a first-line screening tool to identify potential TBI patients.  Additional information about veterans who have been identified as possible TBI patients by the initial Screening Reminder is collected through a Comprehensive TBI evaluation.  Reminder results, in the form of Health Factors, Comprehensive TBI evaluation data, and Comprehensive TBI Follow-up results of individual Veterans will be sent to a national database.  This data will be aggregated in order to provide relevant responses to key stakeholders, such as members of Congress, to monitor the quality of care and to implement system improvements. In addition, tracking applications will be used to collect data on TBI patient appointments.</p>

Accelerating Access to Care Initiative Completed Appointments- Report 2014 August 28

<p>VA is posting regular data updates showing progress on its efforts to accelerate access to quality health care for Veterans who have been waiting for appointments. These access data updates will be posted at the middle and end of each month at VA.gov. The facility-level data show the current status of VA's: 1) New Enrollee Appointment Request (NEAR) List: The total number of newly enrolled Veterans that have asked for an appointment during the enrollment process.  Out of an abundance of caution, VA reviewed the NEAR data from the past decade to identify any individual who:  has enrolled for care since the inception of enrollment,  indicated they desired an appointment on the enrollment form, and has not yet had a scheduled appointment in the VHA health care system. 2) Electronic Wait List (EWL) Count: The total number of all new patients (those who have not been seen in the specific clinic in the previous 24 months) for whom appointments cannot be scheduled in 90 days or less; and 3) Total Appointments Scheduled: Every appointment scheduled at the facility except surgery and medical procedures.  The term 'pending' has replaced the term 'prospective,' which predicts the availability of scheduled appointments in the future for new Veterans on a given date, and the term 'completed' replaced the term 'retrospective,' which indicates when appointments actually occurred.</p>
