Veterans Choice Program (VCP)

In August 2014, President Obama signed into law the Veterans Access, Choice and Accountability Act (VACAA) of 2014, which directed the establishment of a new program to better meet the health care needs of our Nation's Veterans.

The law directs the establishment of a Veterans Choice Program that provides a commitment on behalf of this Nation that needed health care services or treatment for Veterans will never again be unreasonably delayed because VA's wait times are too long or if a VA medical facility is too far from a Veteran's home.
