National Center on War-Related Illnesses and Post-Deployment Health Issues"" 330 $aConcerns about the health of veterans of recent military conflicts have given rise to broader questions regarding the health consequences of service in any major military engagement. The Veterans Program Enhancement Act of 1998 directed the Secretary of Veterans Affairs to enter into an agreement with the National Academy of Sciences to help develop a plan for establishing' a national center (or centers) for the study of war-related illnesses and postdeployment health issues. In response to this legislation, the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) asked the Institute of Medicine (IOM) to convene a committee of experts. The charge to the committee was to (1) assist the VA in developing a plan for establishing a national center (or centers) for the study of war-related illnesses and postdeployment health issues, and (2) assess preliminary VA plans and make recommendations regarding such efforts. 410 0$aCompass series (Washington, D.C.) 606 $aVeterans$xMedical care$zUnited States 606 $aMedicine$xResearch$zUnited States 606 $aWar$xMedical aspects 615 0$aVeterans$xMedical care 615 0$aMedicine$xResearch 615 0$aWar$xMedical aspects. 676 $a355.3/45/072073 701 $aHernandez$b Lyla M$01094183 701 $aLiverman$b Catharyn T$01086332 701 $aGreenlick$b Merwyn R$01810396 712 02$aInstitute of Medicine (U.S.).$bCommittee on a National Center on War-Related Illnesses and Postdeployment Health Issues. 712 02$aInstitute of Medicine (U.S.).$bDivision of Health Promotion and Disease Prevention. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910970658703321 996 $aNational Center for Military Deployment Health Research$94361792 997 $aUNINA
