EHR Intelligence October 14, 2022
VA has pushed EHR implementations off to June 2023 after finding more deficiencies with the Oracle Cerner system, including issues with patient scheduling and referrals.
The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) announced it is delaying upcoming EHR implementations of its Oracle Cerner system until June 2023 to address system challenges.
This decision comes after Denis McDonough, VA secretary, announced in July that the department would delay EHR deployments until January 2023 to resolve system deficiencies.
During a subsequent investigation at current implementation sites, VA officials found several additional technical and system issues, including challenges with performance, patient scheduling, referrals, medication management, and other types of medical orders.
