integrated Federal Health Registry Framework (Tri-Service)

Abstract

The purpose of an integrated Federal Health Registry capability is to provide a viable solution to fulfill a critical need for improved sharing and exchange of Service member and Veteran health information and data between the Department of Defense - Health Affairs and the Department of Veterans Affairs-Veterans Health Administration communities of interest (COIs) as mandated in Section 1635 of the 2008 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA, 2008). This ability to share and exchange vital health care data between the respective specialties of care is essential to conduct longitudinal analyses necessary to improve patient care and quality of life outcomes. To maximize efficiencies and most effectively meet the needs of the functional communities, the Centers of Excellence (CoEs) have developed a consolidated framework solution for an integrated Federal Health Registry capability. This effort provides a comprehensive solution that meets the specialty care needs of each of the Services and Veteran Affairs that are represented by the Joint DoD and VA CoEs, (Army-Extremity Trauma and Amputation Center of Excellence; TMA-Defense Centers of Excellence for Psychological Health and Traumatic Brain Injury; Navy-DoD/VA Vision Center of Excellence; Air Force-Hearing Center of Excellence; and JTFCAPMED-National Intrepid Center of Excellence).
