Description

The Dept. of Vet. Affairs (VA) provided health care to over 281,000 women vets in 2008 — an increase of about 12% since 2006 — and the number of women vets is projected to increase by 17% between 2008 and 2033. Women vets seeking care at VA medical facilities need access to a full range of health care services, including basic and specialized gender-specific services. This testimony discusses: (1) the on-site availability of health care services for women vets at VA facilities; (2) the extent to which VA facilities are following VA policies that apply to the delivery of health care services for women vets; and (3) key challenges that VA facilities are experiencing in providing health care services for women vets.
