Government agencies struggle to modernize legacy healthcare systems within budget and timeline constraints

Large government healthcare organizations like the VA face repeated setbacks and delays when attempting digital health modernization projects, forcing them to repeatedly hire external vendors and restart initiatives. The complexity of integrating new telehealth platforms with existing infrastructure, combined with bureaucratic procurement processes and technical debt, causes projects to miss deadlines and exceed budgets. Current solutions fail because they don't account for the unique constraints of government IT environments, legacy system dependencies, and the need for security compliance across distributed veteran populations.
