That was a colossal blunder. It has always been unreliable and difficult to use. The dental corps was unable to use it. It would have been much better if the DoD used VistA from the start. It likewise was designed primarily as a bureaucratic and not a clinical tool. It is unintuitive and frustrating to use, especially when looking up old records. Entering orders is a nightmare. It is easy to make mistakes and hard to correct them.
Some physicians with clout refuse to use it. Practically all civilian electronic medical records are transferred via hard copy and FAX. Yes, that is the sad reality. Nobody likes it.
