0 comments

On November 4, the DoD Office of Inspector General (DoDIG) released its annual report on "Top DoD Management Challenges for Fiscal Year 2020, and its companion document outlining the FY2020 Oversight Plan.  Each Inspector General is required by law to prepare this annual statement summarizing what the IG considers the "most serious management and performance challenges facing the agency."   Many of the challenges are persistent, long-standing challenges facing the DoD.  However, this year the DoD OIG added two new management challenges, one of which focuses on the welfare and well-being of service members and their families.  Also included in the FY20 document is a continued focus on providing comprehensive and cost-effective healthcare.

    VA recognized for health IT innovations directly impacting Veterans

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Dec. 10, 2019 VA recognized for health IT innovations directly impacting Veterans WASHINGTON — The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) makes an impact, driving change and advancement, in the federal health information technology market. FedHealthIT recognized VA for creating products and services that have a profound impact on the lives of Veterans through developments in digital and cloud-based solutions and health-IT modernization initiatives. “Part of the department’s mission is its commitment to providing exceptional customer service,” said VA Secretary Robert Wilkie. “Among the Veterans’ calls VA heeded – building a simpler, more user-friendly VA.gov website and expanding telehealth services to the 40% of Veterans living in rural areas.” Listening to Veterans and critically analyzing their thoughts has led to notable VA projects to include: The implementation of the Maintaining Internal Systems and Strengthening Integrated Outside Networks (MISSION) Act, which gives Veterans greater access to health care in VA facilities and the community. The launch of VA’s Electronic Health Record Modernization (EHRM), an initiative to migrate Veteran health data to a new system that will link in with the Department of Defense’s patient records. The creation of the National Artificial Intelligence Institute (NAII), which will use AI research and development for real-world impact and health care outcomes for Veterans.
