    We have 900,000 veterans with claims in the VA. It's clear the government either cannot or will not solve this, but it needs to be solved. I wonder one thing: is there a way to crowdsource the solution? There are some brilliant developers and data analysts on this board. While I don't count myself among these luminaries, I feel that we could solve this.

    Cheers, Daaron

        You need to define the problem first.

        Use the best guess

          You are getting roasted because this is entirely the wrong place to discuss this issue.

            What are you on about? And shouldn't it be in another forum? I took some classes in EMR/EHR a few years back and someone from the VA spoke. They use a system called VistA. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VistA[^]. (It uses Caché ! X| ) http://www.emrandehr.com/tag/veterans-affairs/[^] http://www.va.gov/vista_monograph/[^]

              Presumably the US Veterans Administration.

                Solution to what exactly? As a guess you are referring to back claims. If so then the back log is probably caused by a lack of humans an/or effective process control. Software might help with a solution to either of those, but software itself is not a solution.
