Summary
The St. Cloud VA Medical Center will adopt the Federal electronic health record (EHR) system in May 2027, which is already used by the Department of Defense. This transition aims to enhance continuity of care for veterans by providing seamless access to health records across various providers and facilities. The shift from the outdated VistA/CPRS system marks a significant step toward modernizing the VA's healthcare management, potentially improving patient care and collaboration between military and veteran services. For healthcare professionals, this transition underscores the importance of interoperable systems in delivering efficient and accurate patient care.
