Veterans Affairs Healthcare Summit

Across the United States Government, no priority is more imperative than providing the highest-quality care to our nation’s Veterans.

As the largest integrated health care network in the United States, this falls under the remit of the US Department of Veterans Affairs.

The VA finds itself at a time of rapid change and is rising to meet the challenges of the pandemic, shifting demographics, and the winding down of the Global War on Terror. As veterans needs change, the VA has shifted the way that it provides care and has become a leader in delivering digital and mobile technologies like telehealth and virtual care. The integration of a brand-new electronic health records system is changing the way that clinicians provide care at VA medical centers across the nation. New drugs, medical devices and precision medicine are opening new opportunities in areas like oncology, mental health, prosthetics and many others. Innovative technologies like AI/ML are optimizing supply chain management, logistics, informatics and other IT processes. Acts of Congress have opened up new options for private care to veterans, and the VA has responded through continuing to build its focus on smooth and optimal patient experience processes.

IDGA's Veterans Affairs Healthcare Summit is now in its 19th iteration and is an industry-wide staple for those supporting the VA’s mission set. Our partners across the military, government, private and non-profit healthcare sector, academia and consultant communities have consistently made this event a marquee gathering for senior stakeholders, technology experts, industry innovators, clinicians, nurses and administrators. With our Summit regularly hosting over 650+ attendees, this event will provide those leaders across the VA Healthcare ecosystem the chance to learn, share, and connect with our nation’s veterans to improve health outcomes, care access, and delivery.
