Update: 2025-12-16
Description
VAs New Computer System Set to Expand, Despite Concerns - The Department of Veterans Affairs new computer system, managed by Oracle, is set to launch at thirteen hospitals and many clinics next year, following significant delays and problems since its first use five years ago. The system has seen a rise in user satisfaction from seven percent to thirty-three percent, but a recent investigation found that it still has problems affecting patient care in several states, with over four thousand six hundred cases of patient harm, including six deaths. Despite these issues, Oracle and the VA maintain that the systems overall performance is strong, but some lawmakers worry about deploying it prematurely without a comprehensive, independent assessment.
