THE PRESIDENT’S COMMISSION ON CARE FOR AMERICA’S RETURNING WOUNDED WARRIORS


A key recommendation is to facilitate the seemless transfer of medical information between the DoD and the VA as well as a site to review benefit information. Perhaps a PHR is in the works, if so, hopefully it will be built along standards that permit bi-directional transfer with commercial products. SV


Recommendation #5: DoD and VA must move quickly to get clinical and benefit data to users. In addition, DoD and VA should jointly develop an interactive “My eBenefits” website that provides a single information source for service members.

Goals: Support a patient-centered system of care and efficient practices.
