How we share your records with providers outside VA
The Veterans Health Information Exchange (VHIE) program lets us electronically share your health information with health care providers who treat you, including participating non-VA providers if you receive care outside of VA.
This program is voluntary, and you can choose not to share your information (opt out of sharing).
