Our Intended Audience - VA researchers and research staff, VA providers and policy makers.

To our Visitors - Click on a specific CINCCH topic for information of interest.

Our Vision is:

To be a national resource for high-quality health services and implementation research on Veterans with complex chronic conditions.

The Mission of CINCCH is:

By engaging Veterans and VA partners in conducting high quality, innovative research and through the training of future VA health services researchers, we seek to improve health care delivery and outcomes for Veterans with complex chronic conditions. We define complex chronic care to include Veterans with complex needs and life circumstances (e.g., lifelong disabilities) and those who use multiple sources of care (e.g., VA, Medicare, non-VA care).
