VA Healthcare 2023 Post-Show Report

The 2023 VA Healthcare Summit came at the perfect time, as Congress approved a total of $118.7 billion for the Department of Veteran’s Affairs in FY2023, a 22% increase from the year past, the largest in the history of the VA. Additionally, the VA and healthcare systems across the U.S. were facing the post-covid reality of shifted expectations from patients for more accessible remote care. This increase of funding tied with the patients’ desire for remote services led the VA Healthcare Summit to be the perfect venue for government officials and solutions providers to gather under one roof to determine the best way forward for serving American veterans.

Besides discussions surrounding telehealth and remote care, VA Healthcare Summit also tackled the latest challenges for the VA in areas like IT, EHR modernization, oncology, mental health, prosthetics, recovery, women’s health, and LGBTQ+ health through it’s interactive presentations, case studies and panels.

The 2024 iteration of the event will be the 18th, and this year’s agenda not only looks to build off discussions held in 2023, but broach trending topics in the VA such as a new focus on the successes and challenges of private care via the MISSION Act and Community Care, and specific clinical track sessions on mental health, prosthetics, oncology, telehealth, PX.
