The trouble with VOE in West Virginia was/is that VOE was designed, planned and funded for a different model of health care delivery. WVPCN requirements are different from the requirements of a small practice. That includes functional requirements and resource requirements, particularly for implementation and training.
But done correctly, VistA is absolutely the right answer. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of John Leo Zimmer Sent: Thursday, October 13, 2005 1:15 PM To: hardhats-members@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [Hardhats-members] perpetually deferred perfection trumps progress every time ---------- Original Message ----------- From: Gregory Woodhouse <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Re: perpetually deferred perfection trumps progress every time > On Oct 12, 2005, at 3:56 PM, John Leo Zimmer wrote: > > > I wonder if Mike Leavitt has ever heard of VOE? > > > > jlz > > > > > > > > "Look alive, here comes a buzzard." > > -- Pogo > > > > I want to know if VOE was the inspiration for your sig file. I think this one may be another, more pointed way of saying the same thing. The tempter approached and said to him. "If you are the Son of God, command that these stones become loaves of bread." Mat 4:3 I speculate that the trouble with VOE in West Virginia may have been a failure to value the VistA healthcare community more than the "loaves of bread." We hope to avoid that error in Iowa. regards, JohnLeo ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: Power Architecture Resource Center: Free content, downloads, discussions, and more. http://solutions.newsforge.com/ibmarch.tmpl _______________________________________________ Hardhats-members mailing list Hardhats-members@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/hardhats-members ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: Power Architecture Resource Center: Free content, downloads, discussions, and more. http://solutions.newsforge.com/ibmarch.tmpl _______________________________________________ Hardhats-members mailing list Hardhats-members@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/hardhats-members
