TechnologyMELE's open-source VistA and the VA's VistA share the same features, functionality, scalability and reliability. The most significant difference is the open source version of VistA runs on an open source, nonproprietary operating platform whereas the VA's VistA operates on proprietary software which must be licensed. MELE's VistA operates on an open-source database management system which runs on Linux, an open-source operating system.
As an ASP (application service provider), MELE Health Information Systems enables you to access VistA from servers at our central data center while working at your office work station. You can rest easily knowing your client information is safe and secure in a separate database at our VistaASP data center. VistaASP provides you access to a HIPAA compliant, integrated healthcare information system configured to your specific needs. It is like having the VistA system in your office without the need for an IT staff to maintain it.
VistA is built using client server technology that links personal computers and work stations to VistA’s graphical user interface – a robust computerized patient record system (CPRS). Other applications, such as commercial products, can also be integrated with VistA.
