Government Agencies Halt Major Programs in Latest 'Reset'
TL;DR Summary
The Department of Veterans Affairs has halted the rollout of its Electronic Health Record program due to complaints from veterans and clinicians that it is not meeting expectations. The program is part of a $16 billion contract with Cerner Corporation, which was acquired by Oracle. The rollout has already been implemented in five VA health care systems across the country, but none in the Kansas City area. The VA and Oracle remain committed to improvements and hope to eventually resume the rollout.
