This week is the kick-off for Phase I of My HealtheVet, VA’s new web-based application for veterans. My HealtheVet creates a new, online environment where veterans can explore health topics, research diseases and conditions, learn about veteran-specific conditions, understand medication and treatment options, assess and improve their wellness, view seasonal health reminders, explore a wellness calendar, and more. In later phases, My HealtheVet extends veteran access to valuable and timesaving services such as online prescription refills, the ability to view next appointment date and time, and the ability to see co-payment balance. Ultimately, when the health record portion of the application is available, a veteran will be able to view and maintain a copy of key portions of his/her secure personal health record from VA’s health information system, HealtheVet/VistA. The web link for My HealtheVet at http://www.myhealth.va.gov and tell a veteran about it!
