What goes on in the Veterans Administration, the people served responsibility, costs. As those people served have yet to Sacrifice themselves, decades now and wars from especially the past decade plus as the wars still have yet been paid for. Thus the still grossly under funded, attack the VA personal by conservatives in congress, as congress still isn't doing the jobs charged to do with their employment when hired by those same people served!!
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASEAugust 13, 2014
WASHINGTON -- The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) announced today that primary care has been added to the services available to Veterans through VA’s Patient-Centered Community Care (PC3) contracts, a key and evolving part of the non-VA medical care program. Eligible Veterans are already able to access inpatient specialty care, outpatient specialty care, mental health care, limited emergency care and limited newborn care for female Veterans following childbirth under PC3.
“With the addition of primary care services, VA Medical Centers can now use PC3 to provide additional types of care in order to reduce wait times,” said Secretary of Veterans Affairs Robert A. McDonald. “This modification is another example of how we are working to ensure Veterans get the care they need, when they need it and where they want to be seen.”
This modification supports VA’s Accelerated Care Initiative, helping to move Veterans off of waitlists and into care. Additionally, reduced commuting standards will require that contracted providers schedule appointments closer to the Veterans’ homes. read more>>>
