The quote in the article from Steve Buyer must be distressing to anyone who remembers
anything about the origins and development of VistA:
"Information technology at (the) VA is not centrally managed, and the results are poor
service to veterans, inefficiency and wasted tax dollars," Indiana Republican Steve Buyer,
the committee chairman, said in a written statement.
My understanding is that overly centralized management of IT in the VA has (almost?)
always been the biggest source of "poor service to veterans, inefficiency and wasted tax
dollars". Has that changed or is this more of the same?
