Aug. 27, 2018

After one month on the job, Genevieve Morris has resigned from her role as the chief health information officer (CHIO) at the VA’s Office of EHR Modernization.

On August 24, she tweeted a copy of her resignation letter to HHS Secretary Alex Azar and VA Secretary Robert Wilkie.

She wrote, “Over the last few weeks, it has become clear to me that VA’s leadership intends to take the EHR modernization effort in a different direction than we were headed, and since my service as CHIO was always intended to be an interim solution, I am offering my resignation to the administration effective immediately.”
