VistA Tour's mission is to increase awareness of the VistA health care information system in Latin America. VistA (Veterans Health Information Systems and Technology Architecture) is the acclaimed health care information system originally developed by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to support record-keeping functions and clinical-care management of veteran's health care. VistA is the most widely adopted health care information system used by government agencies and public or private health care organizations. There is growing adoption of VistA outside of the United States, Mexico and Jordan, are the primary examples. The time is right to advance the adoption of VistA in Latin America.

GT.M is the ideal platform to deploy VistA, and we are happy to sponsor Peter Bodtke on his mission.  He will be distributing CDs of WorldVistA EHR on GT.M during his travels.  The CD images can be freely downloaded from the GT.M project at Source Forge.
