VA research is patient oriented, focusing on prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of conditions prevalent in the veteran population.More than three-quarters of VA researchers are clinicians who provide direct patient care to veterans. As a result, the Veterans Health Administration (VHA)—the largest integrated medical care system in the world—has a unique ability to translate progress in medical science directly to improvements in clinical practices.
