Apptis, Inc., a leading IT services and solutions provider to the federal marketplace, announced today it has completed the first of five primary objectives for upgrading the clinical data repository (CDR) within the DoD’s Armed Forces Health Longitudinal Technology Application (AHLTA) electronic health record system. This database, built upon Oracle solutions, is the world’s busiest Oracle database, handling more transactions per second than any other organization.

Apptis has partnered with Forgentum, Inc., a solutions provider with an in depth understanding of AHLTA and the Military Health System (MHS) and 3M Health Information Systems, Inc., a subsidiary of 3M, to perform this upgrade.

The AHLTA electronic health record system provides a comprehensive, networked, and life- long computer-based patient record system that can be accessed around the globe. The heart of AHLTA, the CDR, captures and stores data for each life-long record. Upon Apptis’ completion of the first objective through the upgrade of the underlying Oracle software, the DoD is able to document and streamline the communications infrastructure driving the system, lowering operating costs, and improving data quality. The next objectives will continue along this path, providing means for better operational control, management and performance.
