For almost two decades, veterans have had difficulty accessing healthcare in the Veterans Administration (VA) due to prolonged appointment wait times. Despite numerous policy initiatives, veterans' healthcare access problems persist. This quality improvement project evaluated the impact of a nurse-led Referral Coordination Team on appointment wait times and on the timeliness of scheduling in a VA Urology Department.
