VA's VistA EHR
VistA, or Veterans Health Information Systems and Technology Architecture, is the electronic health record (EHR) system used by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). It helps healthcare providers manage patient information, including medical history, medications, and treatment plans. VistA improves communication among healthcare professionals, enhances patient care, and streamlines administrative tasks. By centralizing health data, it enables veterans to receive timely and coordinated care across different facilities, ultimately aiming to improve health outcomes and patient satisfaction.
