Testimonial

Megan Adams, MD, JD, MSc "As a VA health services researcher, I believe there is no place where my research can have a greater impact on frontline care delivery than in informing policy development relating to expansion of community care services and clinical integration across VA and non-VA sites of care. It is for this reason that I applied to serve as a [REiR] researcher." – Megan Adams, MD, JD, MSc
