CARES Decision
Louisville, KY VA Medical Center |
The Secretary has reviewed the Capital Asset Realignment for Enhanced Services (CARES) study contractor’s Stage 1 report and the recommendations of the Local Advisory Panel (LAP) and concluded that no Stage 2 analysis is needed to complete the study. The Secretary has concluded that the Stage 1 Report validates the need for a replacement hospital and identified several site locations that allow for collaboration with the University of Louisville and co- location with VBA. Veterans Health Administration (VHA) will move the planning for a new medical center into its capital planning process by initiating a Site Selection Board to decide where to place a new hospital, completing the CARES Business Plan Study.
CLICK HERE FOR THE LOUISVILLE STAGE 1 REPORT, which includes details regarding the Louisville study site, market health care demand, options reviewed by the contractor, and final recommendations. The Louisville Stage I Report has been revised (As of August 10, 2006) as follows: On page 17 of the report a change was made in Table 7. The 2023 projection for "Psychiatry & Substance Abuse" was corrected from 44 to 34 beds. This did not affect the 2023 Projected Total of 138.
