Version History
| Version | Modification Description | Updated Date |
|---|---|---|
| This Program Announcement has been modified only as highlighted on pages 3 and 5. The second paragraph on page 3 now states: [t]he intent is to create enduring initiatives and collaborations that will develop and support sustained business and enterprise solutions for the DoD as well as organizations such as the Veterans Benefits Administration (VBA), Social Security Administration (SSA), Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), and the general public. Topic 5 under section B. on page 5 now states: [t]o analyze and define a long term path to support the CFA between MHS and VA and SSA in order to exchange ICF-based documents on the Nationwide Health Information Network (NwHIN). This would help set a national standard that not only is useful for disability management and wounded warrior continuity of care, but could also be extended into overall chronic care management (for any chronic condition in which environmental factors play a significant role in a person’s overall levels of functioning). | Nov 18, 2011 | |
