Col. Kevin Seeley: DHA ramping up IT infrastructure ahead of medical management takeover

The Defense Health Agency is set to take over the management of all of the military’s medical treatment facilities by next October. As part of the ramp-up, DHA has been busy building and upgrading its IT infrastructure. The idea is for clinicians to see the exact same desktop at any DoD health facility in the world. The Medical Community of Interest, as it’s called, is also paving the way for the department’s new electronic health record, MHS Genesis. Col. Kevin Seeley is DHA’s acting chief information officer. He talked with Federal News Radio’s Jared Serbu about the upgrades.
