VistA Posted by Ignacio Valdes, MD, MS on Thursday March 30, 2006 @ 03:05 PM
from the VistA dept.
Modern healthcare has an article (registration required) about deploying the Veterans Affairs VistA electronic medical record in Mexico: 'Mexico has installed in 21 government-owned hospitals the core VistA information system developed by the U.S. Veterans Affairs Department, along with several key applications, and the technology could be in place at up to 100 Mexico-owned hospitals by year-end, according to a health service official there....Mexico is likely to be the largest VistA implementation in the world within three years, with several hundred hospitals running at least the basic system...' What does Mexico know that the United States does not? Digg this article
