Veterans, children first. Consolidation of federal healthcare services leads some VA clinics to expand patient mix.Mod Healthc. 1998 Jun 01; 28(22):36-8.MH
Abstract
Facing flat federal appropriations, the Department of Veterans Affairs is fattening its budget through service contracts with other agencies. That's meant young children and World War II veterans mix in some of its clinics. Although conceding that new funds are needed, veterans groups fear the VA's traditional customers will be shortchanged in the transition.
