VA's Health Services Research and Development Service (HSR&D), works to identify and evaluate innovative strategies that lead to accessible, high quality, cost-effective care for veterans and the nation. HSR&D provides core funding to fifteen Centers of Excellence (COEs). Each COE develops its own research agenda, is affiliated with a VA Medical Center and collaborates with local schools of public health and universities to carry out its mission.
