• Proactively work to improve system performance and operational efficiency

• VistA System Administration (e.g. setting up a new system from scratch (Intersystems Cache, GT.M, Patching – retrieval, review & installation, HL7)
• VistA/MUMPS Development (e.g. writing new M functionality, creating and distributing patches, working knowledge of namespacing, coding conventions (VA’s SAC guidelines))
• VistA HL7
  • Extensive experience with configuring VistA HL7 messaging
  • Troubleshooting VistA HL7
  • Consuming/interfacing-with HL7 messages
  • Working knowledge of out-of-the-box available HL7 message types
  • Inter-package HL7 messaging knowledge is desirable
