Have you ever considered what would happen if you tried to put a dollar figure on the amount of effort that is expended right here on this list in trying to make Vista work in a non-VA setting? That effort is not free, and any effort to evaluate the cost effectiveness of Vista as a solution needs to take that into account. Note that I am NOT saying that Vista isn't a cost effective alternative, only that we have a tendency to (sometimes considerably) underestimate how much it costs to implement Vista in a new environment.

"With the toll of preventable deaths mounting weekly, an alarmed federal judge Thursday seized control of California's woefully inadequate prison health care system to ensure that inmates receive the care they're guaranteed under the U.S. Constitution.

It is the most sweeping federal takeover of a prison health care system in the nation's history."
