Open-sourcing VistA could revolutionize healthcare records
,----[ Quote ]
| Given the collaborative roots of VistA and all
| the third-party development that's been done
| on top of it, in use in hospitals all over the
| nation, it makes sense to make this a full-
| fledged open source project, engaging the best
| coders and developers out there to build the
| best system for our veterans. And with the
| federal government moving toward electronic
| record-keeping for all healthcare, this gold
| standard could be applied across the board.
