VA flips medical system on its ear
Do you think that a system or product that was below par before can get better with time? Clark does. One example is the Veteran’s Administration, also known as the VA, and its medical system. It was third-world health care and was an insult to the veterans who had defended our nation with their service. Today, the VA – now the Department of Veteran’s Affairs – is a shining example of health care. And, it’s helped leapfrog the rest of the medical industry. How? Electronic medical records. If people come into the VA and can’t remember when they were last seen or what meds they’ve been prescribed, the VA employees simply call it up on computer. It’s caused the organization to do a lot more with a lot less money. It’s hard to get the process of medicine to move forward, but the VA has shown us that it can be done.
