VA Health Care: Resource Allocation Has Improved, but Better Oversight Is Needed

Report Type Reports and Testimonies
Report Date Sept. 17, 1997
Report No. HEHS-97-178
Subject
Summary:

The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) provides health care to about 2.6 million veterans each year, but veterans in different parts of the country traditionally have not had equal access to these services. A shift of the veteran population from the northeast and the midwest to the south and the west without appropriate reallocation of resources has created inequities in access to services. In April 1997, VA launched the veterans equitable resources allocation system as part of a strategy to improve the equity of veterans' access to health care. The system is designed to allocate resources to 22 regional VA health care networks, which are responsible for distributing resources to hospitals and clinics. This report assesses VA's (1) implementation of the veterans equitable resources allocation system, (2) monitoring of changes in health care delivery resulting from the system, and (3) oversight of the network allocation process used to give veterans equitable access to service.
