SVAC Bill Hearing

Alicia Diaz — Thu, 09 May 2013 19:01:31 GMT

VA routinely assesses veterans’ health care access needs through its Strategic Capital Investment Plan (SCIP). SCIP prioritizes all levels of construction projects based on a scoring system, placing those with the highest score at the top of the list. This model of evaluation and resource allocation allows for equitable and consistent distribution of capital funding. However, for SCIP to fully be realized, sufficient funding must accompany the plan.

HVAC Oversight and Investigation Hearing

Alicia Diaz — Tue, 07 May 2013 18:25:40 GMT

As the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) strives to improve the quality and delivery of care for our wounded, ill and injured veterans, the facilities that provide that care continue to erode. With buildings that have an average age of 60 years, VA has a monumental task of replacing or expanding the existing medical facilities. From 2004 to 2010, utilization of VA health care facilities grew from 80 percent to 121 percent, while the conditions of these facilities declined from 81 percent to 71 percent over the same period of time.

VA’S BUDGET REQUEST FOR FISCAL YEAR 2014

Randi Law — Thu, 11 Apr 2013 17:02:12 GMT

As VA strives to improve the quality and delivery of care for our wounded, ill and injured veterans, the facilities that provide that care continue to erode. With buildings that have an average age of 60 years, VA has a monumental task of improving and maintaining these facilities. Since 2004, utilization at VA facilities has grown from 80 percent to 120 percent, while the condition of these facilities has eroded from 81 percent to 71 percent over the same period of time. It is important to remember that VA facilities are where our veterans receive care, and they are just as important as the doctors who deliver it. Every effort must be made to ensure these facilities remain safe and sufficient environments to deliver that care. A VA budget that does not adequately fund facility maintenance and construction will reduce the timeliness and quality of care for our veterans.

HVAC Health Subcommittee Meeting

Jennifer McDonald — Fri, 14 Sep 2012 16:20:52 GMT

Madam Chairwoman, Ranking Member Michaud and Members of this committee, on behalf of the more than 2 million members of the Veterans of Foreign Wars of the United States (VFW) and our Auxiliaries, I would like to thank you for the opportunity to present our views on the Fee Care Program.

The VFW is very appreciative of the efforts made by this Subcommittee to better understand and address a persistent, growing challenge for VA. Your interest in this issue is critical to affecting positive change as we enter into a pivotal time in the life of the Fee Basis Program. Our veterans are from all walks of life and live in urban and rural areas. Some live in what we describe as highly rural areas, and their access to care is limited as a result. VA has for decades operated the Fee Basis Program to meet their needs by allowing them to utilize civilian doctors as part of the care VA provides. I would like to take this opportunity to identify some shortcomings of that program, and how we can address them to both save money and enhance the quality of care we provide.

Improving Educational Outcomes for our Military and Veterans

Randi Law — Mon, 26 Sep 2011 13:25:10 GMT

In the years since the Post-9/11 G.I. Bill took effect, it has come to the attention of the VFW that certain institutions of higher learning – many times predatory for-profit schools – have chosen to prey on those eligible for military and veterans’ education benefits, failing to keep their promise of delivering a quality education.

DISABILITY ASSISTANCE AND MEMORIAL AFFAIRS

Randi Law — Fri, 08 Jul 2011 17:08:15 GMT

The VFW appreciates the intent of this legislation, but believes it will impose an undue burden on VA. It would require VA to make further determinations regarding replacement values in cases of insurance settlements, thus reducing resources available to the timely processing of other pension claims. These additional decisions will further delay and complicate a relatively simple benefit. We urge the committee to craft a less burdensome method for accomplishing this laudable goal.

ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITY

Randi Law — Fri, 08 Jul 2011 17:05:02 GMT

The VFW is pleased to support H.R. 120, which would further extend VA home loan eligibility to surviving spouses of service members who were disabled at the time of death. VFW believes that regardless of time and level of disability of the deceased veteran, the spouse should be provided access to VA home loan program benefits. We hope the committee enacts this legislation so as to benefit spouses, especially at a time when home loans are more difficult to finance.
