About Us

VA HIV Care

The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) is the largest single provider of medical care to people with HIV in the United States. VA's efforts in this area are led by the HIV, Hepatitis, and Related Conditions Programs.

The HIV efforts, carried out by VA medical facilities across the country, take a comprehensive approach that includes:

  • Screening for risk of HIV infection
  • Testing for those at risk
  • Education for patients and their families
  • Giving providers access to the best available information about HIV
  • Excellence in clinical care
  • Support for research to improve clinical care
  • Ongoing quality improvement
