A higher calling. A higher quality of care delivery.
Whether you're an experienced physician or new to the field of medicine, you understand the impact that business has had on health care. But at VA, patient care is not a business decision. Veterans are our highest priority, and we are committed to providing them with the highest quality care possible, and this patient focus lets you practice medicine the way it was meant to be practiced—with the patient as the priority. VA physicians work with the entire interdisciplinary care team to deliver state-of-the-art medicine using some of the most advanced medical technologies in the Nation.
When a major business magazine asked journalist Phillip Longman to figure out who had the best answers to America's health care challenges, he didn't expect to land on the doorstep of VA. Yet after exhaustive research, no other conclusion was possible.
In his book "Best Care Anywhere," Longman shares his research on the U.S. health care system, and explains how VA's approach to providing outstanding care to Veterans, really is the best health care available in America.
