BATTLE CREEK, MI (WKZO AM/FM) – As part of a restructuring of funding through the Department of Veterans Affairs, the VA Medical Center in Battle Creek will be getting upgrades in facilities and technology.
According to an announcement from the VA, work on the Battle Creek medical center includes renovation of restrooms, reception area, and audiology, radiology, and CT rooms.
“This is another step forward in our efforts to make VA work better for the Veterans, families, caregivers and survivors we are charged with serving,” said VA Secretary Doug Collins. “Improved facilities, equipment and infrastructure help improve care for Veterans, and these additional funds will enable VA to achieve that goal.”
The additional funds will come from savings gleaned from various VHA reform efforts. The additions will bring total NRM program spending for fiscal year 2025 to $2.8 billion — a nearly $500 million increase from fiscal year 2024.
