Jared Serbu writes DoD was originally set to roll out the MHS Genesis EHR system on Dec. 6 but decided to move the launch after Leidos and the agency discovered glitches in the integration of the Cerner-built commercial EHR software with the Pentagonâs legacy systems Armed Forces Health Longitudinal Technology Application and Composite Health Care System.
A team of Leidos, Cerner and Accenture was awarded in July 2015 a multi-year, multibillion dollar contract to integrate a commercial EHR platform across the Military Health System.
Bill Siwicki also reports for Healthcare IT News that DoD said it will issue details on the delay within a 30-day period.
The Pentagon was scheduled to start a pilot program at a naval hospital in Washington state as part of the MHS Genesis projectâs initial deployment, Siwicki reports.
