Dr. Neil Evans, acting program executive director for VA’s Electronic Health Record Modernization Integration Office, spoke at GovCIO Media & Research’s 2025 Health IT Summit to provide an update on the Federal EHR rollout.

VA paused deployment in 2023 due to optimization and reliability issues, but Evans confirmed plans to restart in April 2026 at select Michigan sites, with full implementation targeted by 2031. He outlined a wave-based deployment schedule informed by lessons learned from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and the Department of Defense and discussed both challenges and opportunities the modernized EHR presents for Veterans and active military personnel.
