EHR Program RESET Act of 2023

The EHR Program RESET Act of 2023 establishes a new Electronic Health Record and Health Information Technology Modernization Program within the Veterans Health Administration to replace the current Oracle-Cerner system. It requires the Department of Veterans Affairs to meet specific performance metrics before deploying the new system at additional facilities and terminates contracts with Oracle Cerner for training and change management by 275 days after enactment. The bill creates a new Program Management Office with dedicated staff for training, change management, and metrics tracking, and mandates quarterly reports on system stability, staff satisfaction, retention, and performance metrics. It also requires reports on alternatives to the current EHR system, coordination with the Department of Defense, and a comprehensive interoperability roadmap for the next five years.
