Apelon Joins Team Agile4Vets to Drive the Future of Veteran Healthcare
We’re proud to announce that Apelon has been selected as a team member on TEAM Agile4Vets (A4V) for the Department of Veterans Affairs Integrated Healthcare Transformation (IHT) 2.0 contract.
This award is more than a milestone. It’s a mandate — to bring the full weight of our standards and terminology expertise to serve those who’ve served our nation.

A National Commitment to Veteran-Centric Innovation
Through the IHT 2.0 vehicle, VA Program Offices now have access to a pool of Fully Mission Capable Veteran Integrated Teams (VITs), handpicked for their proven ability to deliver healthcare transformation at scale. The program spans four key functional categories:
Health System Transformation and Innovation
Implementation and Operations Support
Healthcare Business Enabling Services
Health Informatics
Apelon’s contributions will be concentrated in two areas that are at the core of how health information flows and functions: 4S (Standards & Interoperability) and 4X (Terminology).
Where Apelon Leads: The Backbone of Data That Delivers Care
Standards & Interoperability
When we say “interoperability,” we don’t mean a buzzword. We mean the ability for a Veteran’s health record to be accurate, complete, and accessible — no matter where they are or who’s treating them. Apelon will help drive the VA’s standards adoption and FHIR alignment, so data becomes seamless, secure, and actionable.
Terminology
Every diagnosis. Every medication. Every clinical note. It all depends on structured, standardized terminology. Apelon will maintain and evolve the VA’s terminology infrastructure using our DTS Editor and TermManager tools. From mapping VistA records to standardized vocabularies to responding to real-time clinical content requests through NTRT, our work ensures that the data powering care is trustworthy, current, and interoperable.
Apelon is ensuring Veterans get the right care, at the right time, powered by the right data.
More Than a Contract. A Mission We Stand Behind.
As a VIT member, Apelon is committed to:
- Delivering Veteran-first solutions that improve outcomes and experiences.
- Enhancing VHA services through agile, standards-based digital infrastructure.
- Partnering with national leaders in Veteran innovation and care delivery.
- Supporting the VA’s sacred mission to serve those who served us.
