The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) is issuing a Request for Information (RFI) to identify potential sources for providing Systems Integration support for the transition of its Electronic Health Record (EHR) system from VistA to Oracle Health. The goal is to facilitate the enterprise-wide deployment of the Federal EHR while enhancing efficiency in healthcare delivery to veterans. Responses are sought from organizations with expertise in EHR implementation, integration, and management. Key responsibilities include current state analysis, solution design, implementation strategies, and post-deployment support, with an emphasis on improving communication and coordination among various stakeholders. Interested parties must submit a cover sheet detailing company information and capabilities, along with specific examples of similar past work in healthcare IT modernization. The deadline for submissions is July 11, 2025.
