Brian Pegouske with the Battle Creek VA Medical Center talks to Community Matters about what to expect when a new electronic health record system for veterans launches April 11. Pegouske explains how the new system will improve the care patients receive wherever they go and the role AI will play in helping to analyze healthcare.
During the transition, veterans will continue to use the My Healthe Vet for their online care and messaging their providers. Pegouske advises that veterans plan ahead for their prescription needs as they approach the April 11 launch date as communication with pharmacies will be temporarily impacted while they complete the transition.
