are so essentially we'' re mosting likely to determine what is the difference in between what is the Veterans.
Benefits Management and what is the Veterans Health Management as well as after that we'' re going to. touch a little bit regarding just how they might interact or intersect with one another so very first I believe.
we'' ll start with defining what VBA is due to the fact that that seems to be where we do the majority of our work.
and what our customers could be much more familiar with so Alex can you speak to us a little bit.
regarding what VBA is and also what VBA does of course so the veterans profit Administration or the VBA too.
abbreviate it moving on is one of the 3 branches of va that handles the dispensation.
of benefits to Experts and also their dependents um the VBA territory extends from disability.
compensation to pension car loan assurances Education and learning Solutions as well as Vocational Rehabilitation the VBA.
is led by the under Assistant of benefits who works under the Assistant of VBA so there are.
4 branches to the VBA that we'' re going to be chatting concerning and also they'' re all underseen by the.
undersecretary so the initial Branch we'' re going to speak about is the office of critical preparation and also.
this Branch manages a strategic and functional preparation of the VBA including implementing.
the VA and also VBA tactical plans as well as residential or commercial properties the second branch is the workplace of Replacement.

the local offices and handles the administration of benefits and also services to.

work Education Services and also Funding assurances and also lastly the last branch is the workplace of.
Deputy under secretary for area operations and this handles the operations at the.
VA Regional Workplaces records Monitoring Facility and also appeals Monitoring Center and also these.
workplaces take care of veterans insurance claims for compensation pension Vocational Rehabilitation and real estate.
benefits ideal many thanks Alex so essentially VA handle advantages appears to be where we.
sort of do a lot of our job so currently we'' ve kind of clarified what the framework is and what.
VBA is and the different branches consisted of in the professionals benefits Management allowed'' s talk. concerning what vah is as well as attempt to clarify you understand the difference as well as maybe what VHA is total Matt.
can you inform us a little bit concerning what VHA is I can so the veterans Health Administration or VHA.
is the biggest Wellness Care Network in the United States the biggest branch of va the VHA is led by.
the under Secretary of Veterans Matters for health and wellness currently VHA is entrusted with serving the millions.
of professionals signed up in VA Health care it'' s made up of 1243 Health Care Facilities 172.
of which are VA medical facilities and also 1062 of which are outpatient sites with varying functions.
those centers are split based on geographical place into 18 experts Integrated Solution.
networks and VHA itself is comprised of a number of kinds of clinical centers Each of which.
serves a various feature for veterans experts Health Administration clinical facilities.
are typically huge Health center centers located in major cities across the United States and each.
Medical Center provides conventional hospital-based solutions as well as some deal Specialized Treatment Services.
such as and also this is a long checklist so bear with me Mental Health Solutions Orthopedics Pharmacy.
Radiology Physical Treatment Audiology and also Speech Pathology Dermatology Dental Providers.
geriatrics neurology and also Vision Treatment another part of VHA is called community-based.
outpatient facilities which are facilities contracted by VA to give veterans with usual outpatient.
solutions such as health and health check outs without having without those experts having to.
really visit a VA Medical Facility themselves there are also Neighborhood Living centers or nursing.
residences which are skilled nursing facilities for experts with steady persistent problems who.
need Recovery or that need Hospice Care there'' s additionally VHA domiciliary treatment.
facilities which provides veterans with short-term domestic medical or psychiatric.
treatment as well as Vocational Recovery in a home-like atmosphere for those experts and also.
last but not least there are veterinarian facilities which supplies free Outreach Providers and Readjustment.
counseling to all fight combat experts fantastic thank you Matt and also thank you Alex as.
well for your explanation so basically when we'' re speaking about VBA veterans advantages.
Administration we'' re type of taking care of the administration uh Division of Veterans.
Matters that takes care of dealing with disabilities as well as paying veterans or possibly paying.
Experts for their impairments whereas VHA is more so the treatment of those conditions so.
I assume those are type of the main differences where we stand for and also do a great deal of our technique.
at VBA the experts advantages Management you recognize VHA is essentially in charge of treating.
those veterans as well as some of our clients for those conditions so since we'' ve kind of laid.
the structure normally kind of go over what VBA is what VHA is and also you recognize very generally.
speaking distinctions in between both you could be wondering well just how or when do these two kind.
of apparently separate entities kind of interact so there are some instances when VHA as well as VBA.
really do interact most notably this is when a professional is required to participate in a CMP.
or a settlement and also pension plan examination when this happens VBA usually connects to.
routine an examination at a neighborhood VA Medical Center through the veterans health management when.
the exam is total the outcomes will be sent to VBA or the experts advantages Management for.
evaluation if the veteran had Care at any type of other vamc or non-va company they can authorize what'' s called.
an Roi which is a launch of information which allows the provider to send out documents straight.
to the veterans advantages Management so simply since you may seek your treatment exclusively.
at a VA Medical Center doesn'' t mean that if you also deal with independently that you can'' t send.
your records over to the experts advantages Administration in assistance of say your impairment.
settlement insurance claim you can definitely do so so those are sort of how those 2 communicate but what.
I believe is actually crucial to note is VA physicians will likely not recognize anything concerning.
an expert particular case for VA benefits that'' s truly managed by VBA and also actually not VHA.
although they do occasionally interact as well as intersect it doesn'' t always indicate that both.
entities are mosting likely to have the same details any type of inquiries that you have about VA declares if you.
do have any type of inquiries regarding VA insurance claims or your very own cases or your very own appeal that should be something.
that you can give VBA possibly represented by a vso or any kind of other representative that you may have.
that may be assisting you through that process so I assume we'' ve sort of usually discussed.
and also discussed differences in between what VBA is what VHA is as well as additionally sort of touched on what.
you know what conditions they may communicate so I think we'' ve covered an excellent amount for.
