The Veterans Health Information Systems and Technology Architecture (VistA) program is "a huge success story," said James Herbsleb, a computer science professor at Carnegie Mellon University, in an interview with the DorobekINSIDER.

Herbsleb refers to Phillip Longman's book "Best Care Anywhere" that explores how the VA's system could be a model to help save the U.S. Health care system.
