VA: low enrollment limits services

The Department of Veterans Affairs has provided the report I requested in last year’s appropriation for the agency, explaining that low enrollment by Marianas veterans limits the investment the Department can make in our islands. Together with difficulties recruiting and retaining staff, the VA concluded a Community Based Outpatient Clinic is not feasible for the Marianas at this time.

For many years, I have urged our veterans to enroll in VA healthcare, even if you do not have any disability or injury related to your service and even if you do not need care now. Let’s bring our numbers up. Enroll here!
