This study aims to conduct a pilot of an intervention to improve care coordination between VA and non-VA providers using the Department of Veteran's Affairs' (VA) personal health record, My HealtheVet (MHV). Participants will be randomized to receive either training on 1) how to use My HealtheVet to share VA health information or 2) training on how to how to search the Internet for health information and decide which Internet sites have good quality information. The investigators predict that Veterans who receive the My HealtheVet training will have fewer medication errors and duplication of services between the VA and outside providers.

Primary | Percentage of Participants Who Brought Their VA Information From My HealtheVet to Their Visit With Their Non-VA Provider | The primary outcome is whether or not the veteran brings their VA information from My HealtheVet to their visit with their non-VA provider. Providers will be asked to complete a form during the appointment where assessment of sharing this information is embedded in a checklist of possible visit activities. Participants will also if they provided this information to the provider in the event the provider opts to not return the form. | Within 1-2 week of non-VA provider visit | No |
Secondary | Proportion of Total Number of Unique Medications Discrepant Between VA and Non-VA Medication Lists | A medication discrepancy metric was be calculated by comparing the current VA medication list with the non-VA provider medication list to determine the total number of distinct medications. The number of discrepant medications between these lists is the numerator and is divided by the total number of distinct medications on both lists combined. This will yield a range of scores between score between 0 and 1, with 1 indicating perfect agreement between the two lists. | Typically within 1 month of non-VA provider visit | No |
Secondary | Proportion of Participants Who Received One or More Duplicate Laboratory Tests in the Non-VA Provider Visit. | Therapeutic duplication will be defined as concurrent use of more than one medication from the same therapeutic class. For laboratory duplication, we will review non-VA and VA medical records 6 months prior to the non-VA provider visit. Each patient will be assigned a dichotomous indicator for whether they received therapeutic duplication and/or laboratory duplication during their non-VA provider visit | Typically within 1 month of non-VA provider visit | No |
