The former National Collegiate Athletic Association executive and Army veteran has led a series of reforms and initiatives as the department\u2019s second-highest ranking official, most notably the embattled <a href=\"https:\/\/www.militarytimes.com\/veterans\/2023\/02\/10\/exec-overseeing-va-health-records-overhaul-to-leave-this-month\/\" target=\"_blank\">electronic health record modernization project<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/department.va.gov\/staff-biographies\/guy-t-kiyokawa\/\" target=\"_blank\">Guy Kiyokawa<\/a>, VA\u2019s assistant secretary for enterprise integration, will serve as acting deputy secretary after Remy\u2019s departure. VA officials said they are working now to identify potential candidates to permanently replace Remy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThere is no greater mission than serving our nation\u2019s veterans, their families, caregivers, and survivors,\u201d Remy said in a statement. \u201cIt has been the honor of a lifetime to do that here at VA.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\t<aside class=\"smg-interstitial-link wp-block-smg-interstitial-link\">\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/militarytimes\/veterans\/2023\/02\/10\/exec-overseeing-va-health-records-overhaul-to-leave-this-month\/\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__media\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"157\" src=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Dr.-Terry-Adirim.jpg.jpg?w=300\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__image wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__content\">\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"smg-interstitial-link__kicker\">Related<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"smg-interstitial-link__title\">Official overseeing VA health records overhaul to leave this month<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"smg-interstitial-link__excerpt\">Dr. Terry Adirim has served in the role since late 2021 and will leave on Feb. 25.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t<\/aside>\n\t\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Remy did not give a reason for his departure. In a message to VA employees, he expressed optimism that improvements implemented over the last two years have put the department on a path to better serving veterans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In particular, he cited the expansion of telehealth services, new benefits for military toxic exposure injuries, improving \u201cinclusion\u201d at VA and progress on the health records project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI am confident that VA is on the path to delivering a modern electronic health record that is usable, reliable, and enhances veteran outcomes,\u201d he wrote. \u201cI will be celebrating you as you make these goals a reality for VA and for those we serve.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The 10-year, $16-billion health records modernization has come under intense scrutiny in recent months as the department has repeatedly delayed deployment of the system to new sites amid problems with staff training and system reliability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Remy was tasked with overseeing the work from his first day on the job. VA leaders have said they hope to resume deployments later this summer, but a growing number of lawmakers have questioned if the project will ever yield the promised results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Last week, <a href=\"https:\/\/digital.va.gov\/ehr-modernization\/staff-biographies\/terry-adirim\/\" target=\"_blank\">Dr. Terry Adirim<\/a> \u2014 director of VA\u2019s Electronic Health Record Modernization Integration Office \u2014 stepped down from that role to \u201cpursue other opportunities\u201d outside the department, adding to the uncertainty surrounding the records work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In a statement, VA Secretary Denis McDonough called Remy \u201ca great leader, a true friend, and a steadfast public servant who has fought like hell every day for our nation\u2019s veterans.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He also praised Kiyokawa as the right person to help oversee Remy\u2019s work while a replacement candidate is found.<\/p>\n\n\n\t<aside class=\"smg-interstitial-link wp-block-smg-interstitial-link\">\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/militarytimes\/veterans\/2023\/01\/24\/white-house-names-latest-pick-to-lead-veterans-benefits-operations\/\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__media\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"210\" src=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/JoshJacobs.jpg.jpg?w=300\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__image wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__content\">\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"smg-interstitial-link__kicker\">Related<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"smg-interstitial-link__title\">White House names latest pick to lead veterans benefits operations<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"smg-interstitial-link__excerpt\">If confirmed, the move will give VA confirmed officials in its top leadership spots for the first time since early 2017.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t<\/aside>\n\t\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Kiyokawa, a former Army Medical Service Corps officer, now handles issues of strategic planning, performance, and risk management within the department.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Remy\u2019s departure continues VA\u2019s streak of openings among its top leadership posts. All five of its most senior offices have not been filled by Senate-confirmed officials since December 2016.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Currently, the only one of the five that is open is the under secretary for benefits post.
