 <title>VA Health Care: Experiences in Denver and Charleston Offer Lessons for Future Partnerships with Medical Affiliates</title>
</titleInfo>
<abstract>The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) maintains affiliations
with medical schools, including the Medical University of South  
Carolina (MUSC) and the University of Colorado at Denver and	 
Health Services Center and University of Colorado Hospital (UCH),
to obtain enhanced medical care for veterans. As part of their	 
plans for new medical campuses, both UCH and MUSC proposed	 
jointly constructing and operating new medical facilities with VA
in Denver and Charleston, respectively. This report discusses (1)
how VA evaluated the joint venture proposals for Denver and	 
Charleston and the status of these proposals, (2) the challenges 
these proposals pose for VA, and (3) the lessons VA can learn	 
from its experiences in Charleston and Denver for future	 
partnerships.</abstract>
