For more than 10 years, Larry Wilson has been a bridge between Veterans and My HealtheVet, VA’s online patient portal. As a My HealtheVet Coordinator at Eastern Colorado VA, he spends his days helping Veterans navigate My HealtheVet and connecting them to their health care.
Working with Veterans comes easily to Wilson. After all, he spent 25 years serving as an Air Force medic. He also uses My HealtheVet for his own care. He says it is “leading the way” among online patient portals, and he is excited for My HealtheVet’s transition to VA.gov.
“My HealtheVet gives Veterans freedom to take control of their own care. I love helping Veterans and their families communicate better, have a better experience at VA, and bridge those gaps in communication,” he said.
