The Veterans Administration Fargo Health Care System, in partnership with Jess Omundson VFW Post 1676 of Detroit Lakes, has just opened a new Accessing Telehealth through Local Area Stations (ATLAS) site in the lower level of the VFW Club at 500 Washington Ave., Detroit Lakes.
An open house to celebrate the site’s grand opening is set for Friday, March 21, from 10:30 a.m.-2 p.m.
“There will be refreshments, and a couple of people from the Fargo VA will be there to talk about the types of services there are, and how it works,” said Jamie Werth, facility telehealth coordinator for the Fargo VA Health Care System. “There will also be someone there from My HealtheVet (the VA equivalent of My Chart) to help them get signed up.”
My HealtheVet allows veterans “to access and manage their health information, including viewing medical records, refilling prescriptions, scheduling appointments, securely communicating with their healthcare team, and tracking health measures, all through a secure online platform,” according to information available on the Veterans Affairs website, myhealth.va.gov.
