I sincerely regret that I'm unable to be with you and my colleagues Jeff and Jerry this afternoon to discuss the importance of Vet Centers and learn more about how they are being used and ways in which services can be improved.
We must reemphasize that as the VA works to improve its purchased care and care coordination programs, foremost remains the fact that none of these initiatives should be designed to replace the high quality of care provided by the VA…
And if I could respectfully suggest, in addition to the organizations that you are communicating with, that you would include the newer organizations: The Wounded Warrior Project, the IAVA.
As a Nation, we owe them a debt of gratitude, and I appreciate your efforts on their behalf.
