Daou Systems has been awarded $1.6 million in additional contracts from the U.S. Department of Defense. The awards consist of a new $633,000 Military Health Services contract to develop a clinical data standardization toolset for the DoD Health Affairs office, and $1 million in additional funds to provide continued support services for the DoDs Composite Health Care System II project.
Under the MHS initiative, Daou will support the standardization of data elements already residing in clinical database images from legacy systems throughout the MHS. The CHCS II program is an automated medical information system that supports more than 100 military medical treatment facilities worldwide. Daou is working with Integic Corporation (formerly Universal Systems; HNN 5/17/00) on both these contracts.
