VHA Central Office Redesign and Town Hall Invite

I am excited to share that Secretary Wilkie has approved plans to redesign VHA Central Office (VHACO). Our goal is to more efficiently support facilities across VHA to improve care to Veterans. It has taken more than a year to develop a design that best uses your talents, reduces redundant work and improves communications and transparency, allowing VHACO to work as a partner with VISNs and facilities.  VHA senior leadership has addressed recommendations from the Government Accountability Office (GAO), the Commission on Care, and the Independent Assessment to redesign VHACO to better support Veterans Integrated Service Networks (VISNs) and facility operations. Our new structure addresses many of the concerns that put VHA on the GAO high risk list.
