## Clinical Practice Environment

With its CPE (Clinical Practice Environment) application, the HMP Team Facing framework delivers software that serves healthcare teams and helps meet their needs in caring for our veterans. CPE software will help transition Veterans Health Administration from a chart-centric model of care to a team-based, patient-centered model of care through advanced clinical software and a modern software architecture. This software represents an effort to reestablish close clinician-IT collaborative relationships and to build field-driven, web-based modules that meet the following functional and technology goals.

- Functional Goals:
  - Comprehensive, coded, integrated data
  - Knowledge-driven, context-based decision support
  - Role- and conditions-based workflow-driven systems
  - Multi-patient, team-based care
- Technology Goals:
  - Open source, with a service-oriented architecture (SOA)
  - Web-based, with a flexible, scalable architecture
  - Context-aware, with an extensible, modular platform
