Veterans Affairs programs would see a 20% increase in funding under the White House budget plan for fiscal 2023, pushing the department's spending total above $300 billion for the first time. The plan includes large increases in outpatient care services ($29.6 billion, up 32%), mental health care programs, & electronic health records. This Summit will examine current initiatives across the DoD/VA to utilize innovative commercial solutions to improve the delivery of quality health care to Veterans. This event will also offer perspective into current ways the VA is pushing forth initiatives to focus on addressing care gaps while still ensuring VA facilities & services continue to be modernized.
