- For military members and veterans, a workflow engine embedded in the Platinum Smart PHR™ makes comprehensive and up-to-date health information and military profiles and forms (e.g., Form 623, shot records) immediately available (anytime, anywhere) to members, veterans, family caregivers, emergency responders and health care providers.
- For disabled and older veterans and their family caregivers, a workflow engine embedded in the Platinum Smart PHR™ automates care planning and management of various chronic conditions and coordination of military, VA, and civilian providers.
- Online versions of profiles and forms reduce the paperwork burden of veterans and military members and grant access, as needed, to family caregivers and beneficiaries (e.g., spouse, parent, and children).
- Veterans, military members, and their family caregivers get tools for documenting symptoms and side-effects of conditions, such as PTSD or back injury, as needed when applying for disability benefits.
- Automatically displays a waiting-room clipboard summary (e.g., health insurance, medication list, allergies) of current, detailed Smart PHR™ information. Hand or fax a clipboard summary printout to civilian providers, or grant online access, instead of filling out the same form at every visit.
- Guides military members, veterans, and family caregivers in the entry and updating of lifestyle information (e.g., injuries, hospitalizations, diet and nutrition, fitness level). Use this as a guide in encounters with busy providers, informing them of matters that concern you.
- Equips specialists in entry and updating of chronic-care summaries including diagnostic results, treatment plans, and follow-up recommendations for lifestyle change and symptom surveillance. Go online with your specialist and cooperatively update the chronic-care summary after a diagnosis, at the end of active treatment, before transfer to a primary-care physician, or prior to discharge from the military. Hand or fax a printout of the chronic-care summary to all the providers involved in follow-up care and ask them how their services fit into follow-up recommendations.
- Enables military members, veterans, and family caregivers to observe and graphically display adherence to lifestyle recommendations, symptoms, medication and vaccine side effects, treatment and follow-up milestones. Hand or fax a printout of the observations graph to providers (or grant them online access), so they can see the impact of milestones (such as a medication or vaccination) on a consumer's self-observed symptoms (e.g., pain) and side effects (e.g., nausea). Discuss with providers how their recommendations take into account these observations.
- Helps military members, veterans and family caregivers coordinate, schedule, remind and monitor one-time and recurring events and services. Use the observations graph to see the impact of these milestones on self-observed symptoms and side effects. Discuss with providers how their services take into account these observations.
