Nationwide Electronic Healthcare Modernization

Safeguarding the Digital Backbone of VA Healthcare


Across the country, the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) is modernizing its medical records through the Electronic Health Record Modernization (EHRM) program. This sweeping initiative aligns with Department of Defense (DoD) systems to ensure seamless care for Veterans. IntegralRSG is leading protective design across multiple campuses in this nationwide effort, reinforcing mission-critical facilities that bring VA healthcare into the digital era.

IntegralRSG is proud to be a trusted partner to designers and engineers that are delivering these critical infrastructure improvements, positioning Veteran healthcare service providers to deliver on the promise of seamless and interoperable care. Whether contributing to a data center, main computer room, emergency power component, or other element of the digital healthcare backbone, we ensure that physical security and mission assurance is sustained across a spectrum of hazard events. 

At the Coatesville VA Medical Center in Pennsylvania, serving Veterans since 1930, that mission takes shape in a new main computer room. Though compact, this space powers digital records and contributes to the VA’s broader EHRM framework. IntegralRSG, in partnership with structural engineer Meyer Borgman Johnson (MBJ), hardened the facility to remain operational under hazard events. Our team integrated blast-resistant construction, standoff distances, vehicle barriers, and controlled access—safeguarding both the physical environment and the sensitive data it protects.

The result is a facility that protects Veterans’ medical records and strengthens the digital backbone of VA healthcare—locally in Coatesville and collectively as part of a nationwide network of resilient EHRM facilities.
