Operational Medicine Information System

Abstract

The Operational Medicine Information Systems-Army (OMIS-A) program is an FY 2024 Acquisition New Start program that modernizes the Medical Communications for Combat Casualty Care (MC4) solutions. OMIS-A provides multiple operational health information technology (OHIT) software applications to Army deployable medical forces. OHIT software focus areas include Healthcare Delivery (i.e. electronic health records), Medical Logistics, Medical Situational Awareness, Medical Command and Control and Patient Movement. The OMIS-A program provides the following capabilities for the Army: - Independent evaluation of software provided by the Joint Operational Medicine Information Systems (JOMIS) program to ensure effective operation and cyber security on Army infrastructure - Validation of software applications on Army operational networks - Maintain Authority to Operate/Authority to Connect for all software applications - Develop OHIT software, application interfaces to Army medical devices, and training materials to support Army-specific requirements OMIS-A utilizes Agile software methods and processes that emphasize user involvement and rapid delivery in response to changes in operations, technology, and budgets. OMIS-A's initial priority is the modernization of the Army's deployable forces electronic health record software. Funding provides engineering, developmental testing, software development, and integration of information management/information technology to support Force Health Protection in accordance with the medical Information Technology capabilities required for Multi Domain Operations (MDO) and Large-Scale Combat Operations (LSCO). Additionally, the OMIS-A program fulfills the requirements highlighted in United States Code: Title 10, Subtitle A, Part II, Chapter 55, Section 1074f, mandating the proper documentation of deployed Service members' medical treatment to include its associated medical surveillance. FY 2025 Base funding in the amount of $6.829 million ensures integration and effective operation of JOMIS-provided Healthcare Delivery applications on Army hardware, maintains system cybersecurity, develops system interfaces with other components of the Army system, configuration management, continuous testing throughout the development process, network testing, develops training materials for the Army, and develops remote software fielding methodologies.
