The partnership is designed to allow private-sector clinicians to inform veteran patients of VA benefits and create a “seamless” care transition between VA facilities and non-VA hospitals. Non-VA hospitals often rely on patients to self-report their veteran status.
The data sharing pledge comes as the VA looks to resume its Oracle Cerner EHR rollout in summer 2024.
The 13 health systems joining the data sharing program:
- Emory Healthcare (Atlanta)
- Inova (Falls Church, Va.)
- Jefferson Health (Philadelphia)
- Sanford Health (Sioux Falls, S.D.)
- UC Davis Health (Sacramento, Calif.)
- Intermountain Health (Salt Lake City)
- Mass General Brigham (Somerville, Mass.)
- Rush Health (Chicago)
- Tufts Medical Center (Boston)
- Marshfield (Wis.) Clinic
- Kaiser Permanente Health Plan and Hospitals (Oakland, Calif.)
- UPMC (Pittsburgh)
- Atrium Health (Charlotte, N.C.)
