VA deputy secretary Donald Remy’s departure from the agency comes less than a week after the EHRM executive director stepped down from her position.

Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) deputy secretary Donald Remy will step down on April 1st after overseeing the agency’s rocky EHR modernization (EHRM) rollout that launched in 2020, according to reporting from The Spokesman-Review.

Remy began the position in July 2021 and oversaw the EHRM program, among other responsibilities, such as adapting VA care to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Remy took office soon after VA Secretary Denis McDonough delayed the go-live of the EHR at additional facilities due to concerns about system issues at Spokane’s Mann-Grandstaff VA Medical Center.
