JUNO BEACH, Fla. (SEPTEMBER 20, 2022) — Document Storage Systems, Inc. (DSS, Inc.), a leading provider of health information technology (HIT) solutions for federal, private and public health care organizations, today announced a contract award from the Veterans Health Administration (VHA) for the Dialysis Electronic Medical Record Software and Maintenance Electronic Health Record (EHR).
“This renewed contract will help the VHA to more easily capture and report dialysis data. This milestone supports the efforts of VHA to becoming a High Reliability Organization and paves the way for the best renal care for Veterans,” said Mark Byers, president and CEO of DSS, Inc.

These modules combine to integrate real-time data with workflow automation, helping VHA caregivers more efficiently manage renal care and dialysis patient treatment.
