VA Maine Healthcare System, along with several other local VA medical centers in the region, is hosting a public virtual listening session Tuesday, March 23, to hear from Veterans on how to design a health care system of the future and grow services for Veterans in a way that reinforces VA’s role as a leader in the U.S. health care system.
This listening session represents an exciting opportunity for Veterans to help VA reimagine how VA delivers care in an equitable, high quality, Veteran-centered manner and develop a plan for investing in VA’s aging infrastructure. We are looking forward to robust engagement and hearing the voices and insights of Veterans on the following topics:
- How Veterans want care to be delivered in the future
- Perception of the quality of health care at VA and VA’s community network
- Experience with the ability to get care at VA and within VA’s community network
- Satisfaction with the condition and location of VA’s facilities
- VA’s role in research, education, and emergency preparedness
The listening session will be conducted virtually on Tuesday, March 23, at 1:00 p.m. You will be able to participate via phone or computer.
The feedback will be used to develop the recommendations VA submits to the Asset and Infrastructure Review (AIR) Commission in January 2022. The AIR Commission will also conduct public hearings as part of their review of VA’s recommendations before submitting its recommendations to the President and Congress for review and approval in 2023.
For information or questions related to the listening sessions, please contact VA Maine’s Public Affairs Officer at VAMainepublicaffairs@va.gov. As always, thank you for your service to our Veterans.
