Questions surround Brailer's resignation
Does Dr. David Brailer's resignation late last week signify problems ahead for government health IT? Did the health IT czar quit because he was growing tired of the grind of his weekly commute from San Francisco to Washington or out of frustration with the program's direction? Expect the theories to fly fast and furiously this week in the aftermath of the decision. Brailer told the San Francisco Chronicle that he hopes to continue working in health information technology in the Bay Area.
