VA User Restricted Access to DoD-only Patient Data
JLV audits user access to restricted patient records when VHA or VBA
users view DoD-only patients. (i.e., there are no VA identifiers for this
patient). At login, the VA user’s site selection determines the site against
which the VA user is authenticating. A VHA user is authenticating
against VistA; a VBA user is authenticated against CAPRI.
- In JLV, VHA users are allowed to
view the records of DoD-only patients (i.e., there are no VA identifiers,
or the patient is not registered in MVI), but the VA requires that
these actions are audited. After performing a patient search and selecting
a patient from the list presented, the VHA user is asked to specify
the purpose of accessing the record. Options presented to the user
are: Emergent Care, Clinical Care, or Authorized Administrative Use.
See Restricted
Access for VHA Users.
- VBA users are allowed to view the
records of a patient who is registered in MVI but the VA requires
that these actions are audited in JLV. When
a patient is not registered in MVI, the VBA user will be blocked access
to the patient's health record. See Restricted
Access for VBA Users.
Note: JLV also audits users
each time a DoD sensitive record in the Outpatient
Encounters, Documents,
Progress Notes, or Lab
Results widget is viewed. See Audited
Access to DoD Sensitive Data for more information.
