Federal Health Architecture (FHA)

The Federal Health Architecture (FHA) is an organized framework that connects health information systems across various federal agencies. Its goal is to enable secure, efficient sharing of health data—like medical records and public health information—so agencies can work together more effectively. FHA establishes standards and supports technology integration, ensuring that different systems can communicate seamlessly. This enhances healthcare coordination, improves decision-making, and promotes better health outcomes for military personnel, veterans, and the general public by fostering a unified, interoperable health information environment.
