VA Health Information Technology (HIT)

The web-enabled VA Health Information Technology (HIT) application tracks facilities/network/software/hardware/system information which will enable the 21 regional Veterans Integrated Service Networks (VISN) to identify systems already in use that new facilities should emulate to maintain a standardized level of care. VA HIT is the authoritative data source for all non-Office of Information and Technology (OI&T) infrastructure assets and the "go to" system for all users (IT, health informatics, biomedical engineers and technicians). VA HIT application automatically extracts data from the VA Corporate Data Warehouse (CDW) and/or Regional Data Warehouse (RDW) and ORION. The web-based front-end application provides the ability to enter data into the database, search, generate reports, and manage interfaces with other databases and systems.
