Industry roundtable for interoperability and business process

Abstract

Healthcare challenges for the military are becoming increasingly complex, and the solution to these challenges lies in effective collaboration between industry, government, and academia. Creating and maintaining such collaboration will require political, management, technical, and financial support. This article summarizes a discussion held during the National Forum on the Future of the Defense Health Information System which focused on the best methods for achieving this collaboration and any particular unique roadblocks facing this effort.
