Netsmart and CalVet Partner to Implement a Unified Electronic Health Record System
Summary
CalVet will implement the Netsmart person-centered electronic health record (EHR) platform, myUnity™, to provide enhanced clinical and operational effectiveness in its delivery of day-to-day care to its residents. “The greatest asset of an EHR is not just efficiency or cost savings, but patient safety,” said CalVet Secretary Dr. Vito Imbasciani. The industry’s first unified EHR platform, myUnity™, enables providers to gain a total view of an individual’s record, even as the person moves from one care setting to another. At the same time, this partnership signals a shift for post-acute providers – and further validates this market’s desire to have an enterprise computing platform, instead of an electronic health record only strategy.” With nearly 1.6 million veterans living in the State, CalVet strives to ensure that veterans of every era get the state and federal benefits and services they have earned as a result of military service. Netsmart is pleased to support the EveryDayMatters® Foundation, which was established for behavioral health, care at home, senior living and social services organizations to learn from each other and share their causes and stories.
