Wounded, Ill and Injured Program

Abstract

Case Management Systems IM/IT. Funding includes development of web-based tools for use in overseeing the Service member recovery and facilitating resolution of transition process issues. In FY 2008, the Departments of Defense and VA made significant progress leveraging the Veterans Tracking Application with access to existing Department of Defense Case Management (CM) tools and resources. The work will continued through FY 2009 with a prototype dashboard that leverages existing case management tools and resources in a single sign on construct. The work will continue in FY 2010 to include further enhancements of the prototype and integration of case management models. The Department of Defense’s request includes funding for development of content management systems. Funding also includes further development of an on-going initiative to provide authorized Reserve Component medical personnel with the capability to read and document medical encounter information and order necessary medical tests, consults and procedures throughout a Service Member’s continuum of care with AHLTA. Funding for establishing this capability across the Reserve Component will pay for the acquisition of hardware, development, testing, and implementation of remote access capability that includes remote access gateways, servers, associated licenses and capacity planning studies. Justification: Non-medical Care Managers are responsible for provide oversight of welfare and quality of life issues. They assist the service member and family in resolving problems involving financial, administrative, personnel, and other non-medical issues that may occur during the recovery, rehabilitation and reintegration phases across the continuum of care. Full funding will provide the capability for DoD Case Managers to view non-clinical data on a Wounded Warriors from one location. FY 2009 funding began the implementation of the July 2007 Dole-Shalala Recommendations and initial development of the 2008 NDAA required comprehensive policy.
