Are there additional charges to facilities/agencies receiving referrals? How will you integrate the software into VistA/CPRS? What type of help desk/customer service is provided, what is the availability (i.e. 24/7 or 8am-5pm), and speed of response?

Can the software be used in both the inpatient and outpatient settings? What are the specific types of reports built into the software and can there be requests for specific reports? Will the software allow for referrals to be made across all VA stations (i.e. referral from Las Vegas, NV to nursing home in Pensacola, FL) Does the software allow for real time communication between VA and the agency where referral was made (i.e. if the agency has specific questions about a Veteran that is not answered in the referral packet). Also, would this type of communication provide a way for the Social Worker to notify all the agencies that a referral was accepted and replies are no longer needed? Are there any geographic limitations of the software in making referrals? Can geographic preferences for locations be selected by users? What are your experiences with Government cloud requirements? Have you been able to receive Government approval to operate with sensitive data for your products in a cloud environment?
