The Veterans Affairs Department plans to conduct a "rigorous four moth review of potential options" for its long delayed $167 million patient scheduling system, which crashed last month, a VA press secretary told me.
This review will include a "complete assessment of advanced technologies," he said, and I guess an additional four months is not too long to wait on a project that has already consumed eight years and produced nada.

Maybe the VA should put more than four moths on the job.
