VA provides new services to vets 04/05/10. The VA has been offering My HealtheVet since 2003 and now features enhanced access with information for prescriptions and other health records.
Veterans can utilize the most from the Web site, www.myhealth.va.gov, by visiting their local VA health care facility and upgrading their account through a process known as the In-Person Authentication. The process only takes a little more than 10 minutes, according to Debbie Whisenant, veteran health education coordinator.
The highlight of the latest upgrade is that vets can now see the names of their prescriptions, not just the Rx numbers. They will also be able to access upcoming features such as making appointments online, which will be rolling out late summer or early fall. Sometime after that, patients will be able to communicate with staff to cancel or reschedule appointments through secure messaging. Down the road, appointment reminders and lab results will be available. BlueRidgeNow.com

This is all really wonderful but has anyone noticed how infrequently the website is available nowdays? I've been trying for two days to renew my prescriptions and the website won't even load.
