IM/IT Test Bed (Air Force) at DHA
Abstract
Continue to provide realistic, risk controlled testing of designated core and interim medical applications in an operationally realistic environment. Critical component of ongoing capability development & fielding efforts, ensuring that each is supported by an independent, unbiased assessment of effectiveness, suitability, security, and survivability in a realistic operational environment as required by the FAR 46.103, DoD 5000, and AFI 99-103. The AFMISTB is a complementary service to existing MHS developmental, integration, interoperability, and security testing facilities, forming a logical test process continuum leading to effective deployment decisions. Outcomes include decreasing life-cycle costs of IM/IT products by catching errors early in the acquisition process where they are less costly to fix, and increasing patient safety by fielding operationally tested medical information systems. Previously reported under initiative IM/IT Test Bed (Air Force) Project Code 239F. Operational control of funding was transferred from Air Force Medical Information Technology (IT) to Defense Health Agency Health Information Technology (DHA HIT) with the stand up of Defense Health Agency beginning in FY16. However, functionality for operational testing will remain with Air Force Medical IT. Funding will be transferred to Air Force Medical IT during year of execution.
