For more info, see [[VistA|this page]].<br /> <br /> == What is RPMS? ==<br /> [http://www.ehr.ihs.gov/ RPMS] is a public domain electronic health record that is used by the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indian_Health_Service Indian Health Service] (IHS). Prior to the 1980s it used a different architecture from VistA, but since the 80's it has shared a large amount of its architecture with VistA. For more info, see [[RPMS|this page]].<br /> <br /> == What is Vistapedia? ==<br /> Vistapedia is a wiki for several varieties of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_domain public domain] versions of VistA and [http://www.ehr.ihs.gov/ RPMS]. Information about the integrated VistA installer called [[Astronaut_VistA|Astronaut]] is also contained within these pages. <br /> <br /> This wiki covers installation, configuration, and usage of these VistA derivatives. It also serves as an introduction to the [[VistA Documentation Library]] for everyone outside the VA.
