Cerner: Why Veterans and Service members need a modern EHR

“On this episode, Mark Mellott of Cerner Government Services talks to Patrick J. Murphy, co-founder and executive chairman of WorkMerk, an education technology company. In 2007, Patrick became the nation’s first Iraq War veteran elected to Congress ─ representing Pennsylvania’s 8th Congressional District until 2011. He also served as the 32nd Under Secretary of the Army.”

“As a member of the Cerner Government Advisory Board, Patrick is part of a diverse group of experts who provide insight on the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Electronic Health Record Modernization (EHRM) program.”

“Patrick answers these questions:

How have your experiences in the federal government and cybersecurity spaces informed your view of how we can provide the best health care for Service members, families and Veterans?

What’s your personal experience with receiving military health care?

How will Cerner’s federal work help transform health care for all?…” Listen here.
