As Chairman of the House Committee on Veterans’ Affairs, one of my highest priorities is ensuring that veterans have timely access to the quality care. Nearly three years ago when committee oversight and subsequent media reports uncovered that veterans around the country were waiting for care, Congress established the Choice Program to allow veterans who meet certain qualifications to seek care from providers outside VA.
This Congress, we are focused on extending and improving the Choice Program, as well as addressing issues with VA medical centers and clinics, so veterans can access quality health care when they need it most.
