Vangent has a deal in place to upgrade the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA)’s Veterans Health Information Systems and Technology Architecture (VistA) to comply with Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) Electronic Transaction Standards, enabling streamlined third-party health care revenue and payments.
According to the firm, “Vangent will operate as a key subcontractor to Engineering Services Network, Inc. (ESN) under a one-year Veterans Technology Services (VETS) task order valued at $10.9 million if all options are exercised.”
“Our latest win with the VA builds on Vangent’s work with the VA for more than 18 years, including the design, development and implementation of previous Electronic Data Interchange programs, ” said Mac Curtis, president and CEO of Vangent. “Our work on the previous 4010 VistA software enhancements provides us with unique insight and expertise that we will leverage to quickly and efficiently achieve success.”
