Office of Primary Care

Primary Care (PC) oversees program and policy related to the delivery of primary care in VHA, as well as implementation of VHA’s patient-centered medical home model, the Patient Aligned Care Team (PACT). VA Primary Care honors America’s Veterans by providing quality and accessible primary care to all Veterans through PACT, placing the Veteran at the center of their health care team. Primary Care promotes team based, patient-centered care that focuses on a personalized, integrated, comprehensive and coordinated approach to health care. Primary Care actively partners with other Program Offices to develop and evaluate innovative programs that integrate VHA resources into the PACT model.
