As a veteran-owned business we take great pride in providing the VA with improved ways to access information," according to Anakam CEO, Allan Camaisa. Examples of applications that will have Anakam interfaces developed include My HealtheVet health portal, the eBenefits portal, electronic claims processing, VA clinical applications, loan guarantee applications, and remote system access/teleworker programs in the efforts to support compliancy with the Privacy Act and HIPAA.

Anakam helps health care institutions like the VA improve their service delivery and prevent medical identity theft and fraud by enabling secure remote access to confidential health information in a cost-effective and scalable manner, without disrupting patient and provider workflow."
