The VA is rolling out a new medical messaging program to replace MyHealthEVet. It is being tested at the Spokane VA. It was started late last year. FACTS: They forced us to use this new system. ALL DATA FROM EVET WAS WIPED. No messages, access to records, etc. GONE!! Log into the new system... NO DATA, MESSAGING HISTORY... A BLANK NEW SYSTEM. Ok, so let's send a message to my doctor...hmmm I NEED TO KNOW THE FIRST NAME OF MY DOCTOR?? NO pull down menu of my team. Nothing. Question: Which 3rd grade child designed this software? Now that is the patient interface. The internal workings of the hospital is now a shit show! I cannot tell it all here! VETS: GET YOUR RECORDS IN ORDER. WE ARE BEING TESTED HERE NOW. FOLLOW UP: The Commnity Care Act allowed the vets to choice out their primary care. Then Congress passed an adjustment to keep vets in the VA if the hospital had space and could hire more docs. Now COVID is the EXCUSE that docs are out sick and refuse choice out for primary care. CATCH 22 VA STYLE. This Salty Pariot will expose this shit. I had to threaten malpractice to get a doc to call me. Then ha begged me to not come in... COVID IS SO BAD!! FYI RISING POSTS MAY NOT COVERING THIS. BUGS IN THE SYSTEM...
Also this VA hospital is the one that spawned the DIRECTOR that killed vets in Phoenix. Remember the scheduling FIASCO.
take my upvote
and my axe
THIS POST IS BLOCKED FROM RISING POSTS ON PATRIOT.WIN. MORE BULLSHIT.
Why?
Because TDW is 100% compromised at this point.
Additional info... I got 246 up votes on Patriots.win. But... no appearance on RISING tab. Blocked by mods. Not autmated. ASSHOES!!
Sounds like Patriots.win is under controlled opposition now
What happened was the mods were threatened by their host (or DNS protection, I don't remember which) in the immediate aftermath of January 6th. The site fell off a cliff right after that.
Thanks for spreading the word!
I shared this on "hallowed" ground If you don't mind...
Thanks man. Shit like this is why I regularly back up my records from myhealthevet. Got my updoot
Id make a bet that the project was rolled out to.meet a deadline. Not based on if it was fully realized yet.
It is more likely the development process used. Most implementations of Agile Development is guaranteed to produce crappy software. It's not Agile that is the problem but how it is implemented. It's all about giving management (who know nothing about the code) control. It's all very Marxist. I'm a software architect, been coding for 45 years. It's frustrating. I should write an article on this, but I'm autistic and have trouble communicating. It involves some obscure math (topology and category theory).
I manage big data in Agile framework. I know the code and data. I spend a great deal of time either preventing or cleaning up these messes. LOL.
I love Agile. It's a shame that it is used so poorly. I have found that the main cause of code complexity is putting functionality in the wrong place. It always results in a bunch if what I call scaffolding code to make things work. I can easily demonstrate the problem using topology and category theory. Most code goes from "use cases" directly to code. What should happen is for the "use cases" to be used only to inform the development of a model of the "problem space". Then the "problem space" is mapped to the code. I have been developing over the last 20 years a new programming paradigm. It's goal is the production of mathematically provable code. Btw, I have discovered several things including a new measure for code complexity. Topology and category theory are awesome!
I will definately look into it! Good info!
Would you agree that ITIL is better or worse?
I think ITIL and it's relatives are worse. They discourage proper code. It takes some math to show this. It has to do with how "use cases" are mapped to code. The purpose of ITIL is to give managers greater control of the development. The main problem with software today is that most of those driving it have gotten a heavy dose of Marxist indoctrination in their schooling. It doesn't help that Microsoft has been so influential in defining the curriculum. I started coding in 1975 at the age of 15. I'm now 60. The whole discipline of code development has gone sideways.
Exhibit A why we do not want government run healthcare.

KEEP THIS STICKIED
This is why I don’t use the VA hospital. Always been shit. Sorry for those of you who have no other option.. it’s just not fair..
It’s a crime that you and the other vets are treated like this. The people running these systems have to be held accountable.
Okay. First, Dear OP, THANK YOU for my freedom and THANK YOU for your service! I do not know Gary Sinise but he has been in the public eye, related to the well-being of our Veterans.
Your post has me grinding my remaining teeth with OUTRAGE that our Vets are STILL being mistreated - after all our beloved POTUS tried to do. I - for one - will do all in my power to contact Mr. Sinise to see if he would be willing to engage with this issue (and you KNOW he's probably already overwhelmed with other stuff) - but it's worth a try.
THIS IS INCOMPREHENSIBLE and NOT ACCEPTABLE! This issue belongs to ALL OF US who are privileged to live free in this great nation. THESE PERPETRATORS NEED TO FEEL THE HEAT of our anger. AND, until they fix EVERYTHING that is broken with the VA - and I mean ALL OF IT - they need to fear even walking down the street.
We need to know Proj. Manager & Supervisor NAMES and contact info and staff persons contact info. THANK YOU, DabbyDave, for letting us know about this. I don't believe this is accidental or simply incompetence. This is intentionally VICTIMIZING our beloved Vets and this MUST STOP... NOW!
Wasn't Jared Kushner involved in updating the VA system, it was supposedly outdated and not interconnected with any other military??
Vaguely remember this from 2017-ish.
Take My up-vote as well. Personally I treat the VA as a Last resort, I am in a small enough area there is a 4 hour commute to the nearest VA Hospital and the Local Clinic has not had a Primary care doctor on staff for quite a while.
Mark my words, there will be a mandatory vaccine required for services.
I corrected my status and am no longer under federal or Municipal jurisdiction.

Worse than that he Chinese doctors Nd other foreign doctors don't give a shit about vets no matter what trump says. I love trump but the VA is lying to him. Improved in some areas but too many foreigners.
One chinese doc fired the only person who gave a shit at our lab. She was trying to fix it. Daily supplies were purchased by credit card because nobody would give a government VA lab credit. This is not a joke. I hope somebody who gives a fuck sees this.
We should've known this was coming. The monumental success of that $B-dollar Obamacare website that was so great was our warning.
The website never worked for my husband in the first place. It is all the worse technology!
Local VA demands you wear a mask or you cant come in even with a disability! That goes against the law and we should sue!
I'm a Disabled Vet. My brothers a Vet, Dad, too. In fact, my family line can be traced back to the American Revolution. I have ancestors who fought to free this country form the grips of the British Monarchy, we fought the Barbary Pirates, we fought the East India Co, we freed the slaves, we helped free Texas. We've fought in every major war the U.S. has ever fought.
For the first time in my family's history, I had to tell my boys I don't want them joining the military, partly because of the V.A. I thought is would get fixed under the last 3 POTUS's, but it's too much to ask for any longer.
Can you make a thread later detailing everything the V.A. is doing in Spokane so we can have more of a heads-up on this?
I have other friends, brothers and sisters in arms really, that are stuck in this nightmarish system and need to know what's coming, too.
Maybe contact Steve Bannon or Project Veritas to raise visibility on this? Contacting your congressional reps will probably do fuck-all.
The VA isn’t broken, it is doing exactly what it was designed to do, save money by killing off the vet.
Since it's been pointed out to me how "they" make money, I'm seeing it everywhere. Modern "art" anyone? These people are parasites.
"Remember when obongo spent millions ^^hiring Michelle 0bama's personal friend in a no bid contract to produce^^ the shittiest website ever for his bullshit healthcare nonsense. lmao."
Worked at the VA. They turned the place upside down to institute some new protocol only to find out a year or two later it didn't work. Then they turned the place upside down again in order to return to the system they started with. I was there for several patient call-in interface systems that were eventually scrapped. There was a lot of dead bureaucratic weight that had to justify their paychecks - none of which in the end did anything to improve patient care. In actuality, many of the changes some pencil pusher initiated hurt the very people they claimed to help.
