Putting Polytrauma Care 'on the Map'In a study to be presented at a national VA meeting in December, investigators at VA's Rehabilitation Outcomes Research Center (RORC) in Gainesville, Fla., used specialized geographic software to track access to VA care for traumatically wounded veterans of the Afghanistan and Iraq wars. The findings will help VA planners decide where to locate services for current and future cohorts of veterans.
