The U.S. Department of Justice has indicted John H. Windom, former executive director of the Department of Veterans Affairs Office of Electronic Health Record Modernization, on three counts of concealing facts, making false statements and falsifying documents in his failure to report vendor gifts, the law enforcement agency said. The DOJ said Windom was receiving "and sometimes demanding, extravagant gifts from a group of contractors and subcontractors" who worked on the $16 billion Cerner EHR contract, one of the largest in the federal government, when he was leading the program.
