National Center on War-Related Illnesses and Post-Deployment Health Issues""Concerns about the health of veterans of recent military conflicts have given rise to broader questions regarding the health consequences of service in any major military engagement. The Veterans Program Enhancement Act of 1998 directed the Secretary of Veterans Affairs to enter into an agreement with the National Academy of Sciences to help develop a plan for establishing' a national center (or centers) for the study of war-related illnesses and postdeployment health issues. In response to this legislation, the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) asked the Institute of Medicine (IOM) to convene a committee of experts. The charge to the committee was to (1) assist the VA in developing a plan for establishing a national center (or centers) for the study of war-related illnesses and postdeployment health issues, and (2) assess preliminary VA plans and make recommendations regarding such efforts.Compass series (Washington, D.C.)VeteransMedical careUnited StatesMedicineResearchUnited StatesWarMedical aspectsVeteransMedical careMedicineResearchWarMedical aspects.355.3/45/072073Hernandez Lyla M1094183Liverman Catharyn T1086332Greenlick Merwyn R1810396Institute of Medicine (U.S.).Committee on a National Center on War-Related Illnesses and Postdeployment Health Issues.Institute of Medicine (U.S.).Division of Health Promotion and Disease Prevention.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910970658703321National Center for Military Deployment Health Research4361792UNINA
