A message from Clymer.."CC"..Conrad Clyburn to all members of Bio-Medical Informatics on MedTechIQ!
Colleagues,
As reported by the Armed Forces Press Service...During a press conference last week, Dr. Gerald Cross, the Veterans Health Administration's principal deputy under secretary for health, said the two agencies now share virtually all electronically available health information. The joint effort is "a testament to the power of collaboration and proof of the great things that VA and DoD can accomplish when we work together on behalf of America's heroes," Cross said. The interagency collaboration, launched last January, is also well ahead of any information sharing capabilities in the private sector in both scope and scale, according to Dr. Stephen Jones, the principal deputy assistant secretary of defense for health affairs.
