Background of Hawaii CollaborativeBackground of Hawaii Collaborative
• Largest number of VA patients referred to a DoD MTF in a VA/DoD joint venture
• Greatest rural and remote complexities in service delivery for any joint venture or sharing site
• One of the first designated joint ventures

Just In Case You Wanted to Know

VistA Fee/IPAC
• What is it?• Benefits
• Status of Development• Summary
![Page 17: The Power of VA DoD Sharing Hawaii Collaboration Ms. Brenda Horner, Tripler Army Medical Center Mr. John E. Holes, VA Pacific Islands Health Care System.](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051516/56649f0e5503460f94c22fbc/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
What is it?
• Complies with the Department of Treasury mandate to pay other federal agencies using the Intra-Governmental Payment and Collection System (IPAC).
• VistA Fee/IPAC is a patch to the VistA Fee system that will permit VA to pay DoD within the VistA system
• Permits workload to be captured that will be counted towards VERA budget
![Page 18: The Power of VA DoD Sharing Hawaii Collaboration Ms. Brenda Horner, Tripler Army Medical Center Mr. John E. Holes, VA Pacific Islands Health Care System.](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051516/56649f0e5503460f94c22fbc/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Benefits
• Workload captured ‘in-system’ • VERA allocation should increase
due to 100% workload capture• Non VA Fee reports for VA patients
referred to DoD can be run• MCCF collections could increase
![Page 19: The Power of VA DoD Sharing Hawaii Collaboration Ms. Brenda Horner, Tripler Army Medical Center Mr. John E. Holes, VA Pacific Islands Health Care System.](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051516/56649f0e5503460f94c22fbc/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Status Of Development
• Effort started in April 2006• Approval won in July 2008• Funding occurred in November 2008• Project development started in December
2008• Projected Beta test in Hawaii December
2009-January 2010• Roll out to all VA facilities January-
February 2010

Summary
• VistA Fee/IPAC will be a positive incentive for sharing• Takes away disincentive for VA
partner of negative budget impact for lost workload/lost revenue
• VistA Fee/IPAC will be first joint venture tool to speed up payments for care received
