The Virtual Care CORE’s mission is to facilitate research that evaluates and improves use of virtual care to enhance the accessibility, capacity, and quality of VA health care and Veteran experience.
Virtual care modalities aim to: Increase Veteran access to services; improve workflow and workload of VA clinical team members; and engage and support Veterans to participate in their own care.
