Information Technology: The Preventive Health Care Application and an Associated Upgrade

Abstract

The Preventive Health Care Application was a tool designed to enable clinicians to deliver and track appropriate and timely preventive services provided to all enrolled military health system members. The Preventive Health Care Application, which included three off-the-shelf modules, was developed to support the Put Prevention Into Practice program by providing health care providers the ability to gather, maintain, retrieve, manipulate, analyze, display, and print preventive health care information. Beginning in 1996, the Office of the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs) developed the Preventive Health Care Application to be a stand-alone application that would interface with the Composite Health Care System II.
