Veterans Health Information Exchange (VHIE)
If you are a Veteran enrolled and receiving care at a VA medical center, you can “Connect Your Docs” through the Veterans Health Information Exchange (VHIE), formerly known as, the Virtual Lifetime Electronic Record (VLER) Program. This program gives VA and participating community care providers secure access to certain parts of your electronic health record. This access reduces the need for Veterans and their families to request and carry paper medical records from one health care provider to another. It also provides other potential benefits to Veterans and their providers.
We encourage Veterans to sign up and/or renew the authorization by using eBenefits or by visiting their local Release of Information (ROI) Office. Additional instructions on how to sign up can be found at http://www.va.gov/VLER/vler-health-exchange-registration-guide.asp.
