VA chief halts rollout of massive digital health system for veterans, citing serious flaws Lisa Rein © Amanda Andrade-Rhoades/AP Veterans Affairs Secretary Denis McDonough testifies Wednesday before the Senate Veterans Affairs Committee on Capitol Hill. Veterans Affairs Secretary Denis McDonough on Wednesday acknowledged fundamental flaws in the agency’s troubled $16 billion effort to modernize veterans’ medical records, a project championed by former president Donald Trump and his son-in-law that is beset by cost overruns, delays, misrepresentations to Congress and a disastrous rollout at its first hospital. McDonough told Senate lawmakers that a three-month internal review of the electronic health records system found so many structural problems that he cannot continue to deploy it at other hospitals until VA leaders are confident of success. He could not say when the rollout will resume.
