U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, a state-owned entity headquartered in the US, was founded in 1989 and employs approximately 378,000 individuals. Functioning as an executive branch department of the federal government, it provides healthcare services.
On February 13, 2026, the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) announced a new regulation designed to expedite decisions and payments for certain types of survivors’ claims. This change streamlines the process by no longer requiring separate addresses for Dependency and Indemnity Compensation and Survivors Pension claims, which previously extended the claims process. Earlier the same day, the VA announced plans to resume its Oracle Health electronic health record (EHR) system rollout, beginning with four Michigan medical centers in April, including VA Detroit, VA Saginaw, VA Ann Arbor, and VA Battle Creek Medical Centers. This action initiates the deployment at 13 sites in 2026, ending a three-year pause implemented to address system outages and patient safety concerns. Also on February 13, Ian Komorowski joined the VA as the acting Executive Director/CEO for the Finger Lakes Healthcare System.
