DSHI VHG – Veterans Health Gateway

Integrated with DSS TeleCare Record Manager™

DSHI Systems' Veterans Health Gateway™ (VHG) is a clinical software application used by nurses who provide telephone triage services to veterans. VHG supports nurse clinical decision-making by systematically assessing a veteran's symptoms, while providing reference health information during the process. At the end of the triage process, VHG provides a triage follow-up recommendation, as well as self-care or interim-care instructions. The systems sorts patients into 7 distinct urgency levels: 911, <2 hours, 2-8 hours, 12-24 hours, 2-3 days, 1-2 weeks, and self-care. The encounter documentation is automatically performed in the background during the triage process and saved as a triage encounter record. VHG has been shown to appropriately identify emergencies, while reducing unnecessary clinic visits.
