From what I understand MyHealth-e-Vet employs a 3 tier architecture.....with Oracle storing the patient's data extracted from VistA. It is not a real time link for updates....it is done by a batch process. I agree with Nancy that it would be best and perhaps easier to replace it. I should add that the functionality of the current system is very good...another kudo to the VA here...while the rest of the world has been talking about patient access to medical records for years the VA is doing it.

Patients have access to a database that is not directly part of CPRS and is accessed through the Internet called MyHealth-e-Vet . I have asked to get the software from the VA but I don't know the answer yet. It is rather complex, from what I understand, and uses a lot of proprietary programs and special equipment. It really sounds as if the best thing to do is to replace it with something else.

Was curious! As far as I know only a person from the
new patient file (provider...), has access to the
patient's medical record.
Can a patient access his own medical record? Does he
use CPRS....? If so, how are the keys to be
assigned... security...?
