For 2014, the Budget is requesting $54.5 billion in advance appropriations for the three medical care appropriations: Medical Services, Medical Support and Compliance, and Medical Facilities. This request for advance appropriations fulfills the Administration's commitment to provide reliable and timely resources to support the delivery of accessible and high-quality medical services for veterans. Advance appropriations require a multi-year approach to budget planning whereby one year builds off the previous year. This funding enables timely and predictable funding for VA's medical care to prevent our Nation's veterans from being adversely affected by budget delays, and provides opportunities to more effectively use resources in a constrained fiscal environment. For example, estimated savings from management improvements to be achieved in 2012 will be carried forward into 2013 to reduce the appropriations needed . Without the carryover of these resources from 2012 , currently estimated at $500 million, VA would need a higher level of appropriations in 2013 .
For 2013, Medical Care appropriations are increased by $165 million over the enacted 2013 advance appropriations of $52.5 billion. Each year, VA updates its budget estimates to incorporate the most recent data on health care utilization rates, actual program experience, and other factors, such as economic trends in unemployment and inflation. As a result, in 2012 and 2013 VA was able to reinvest funding in high priority medical programs.
With the resources requested for 2013 and 2014, VA will provide the highest quality health care services for veterans. VA estimates it will treat 6.3 million patients in 2013 and 6.4 million patients in 2014. Operation Enduring Freedom, Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation New Dawn (OEF/OIF/OND) veterans are expected to reach 610,416 in 2013 (9.7 percent of the total) and 654,480 in 2014 (10.3 percent of the total).
Medical Services._For Medical Services, the Budget reflects the following appropriation funding: the 2012 enacted advance appropriations of $39.6 billion; the 2013 appropriation request of $41.5 billion; and the 2014 advance appropriations request of $43.6 billion. This appropriation provides for a comprehensive, integrated health care delivery system that addresses the needs of eligible veterans and beneficiaries in VA medical centers, outpatient clinic facilities, contract hospitals, State homes, and outpatient programs on a fee basis. Hospital and outpatient care is also provided by the private sector for certain dependents and survivors of veterans under the Civilian Health and Medical Programs for the Department of Veterans Affairs (CHAMPVA).
Medical Care Collections Fund (MCCF)._VA estimates collections of $3.0 billion in 2013 and nearly $3.1 billion in 2014, representing five percent of available resources in both years. VA has the authority to collect inpatient and outpatient co-payments, medication co-payments, and nursing home co-payments; authority for certain income verification; authority to recover third-party insurance payments from veterans for nonservice-connected conditions; and authority to collect revenue from enhanced use leases. These collections also include those collected from the Compensated Work Therapy Program, Compensation and Living Expenses Program, and the Parking Program.

The purpose of the Department of Defense-Veterans Affairs Health Care Sharing Incentive Fund, often referred to as the Joint Incentive Fund (JIF), is to enable the Departments to carry out a program to identify and provide incentives to implement creative sharing initiatives at the facility, intra-regional and nationwide levels. The JIF promotes collaboration and new approaches to problem solving to enable the Departments to improve the coordination of health care services. The Departments have established the fund and developed processes and criteria to solicit and select projects. Section 721 of the 2003 National Defense Authorization Act, Public Law 107–314, established the fund and requires VA and Department of Defense to establish a joint incentive program. In 2013, each Secretary shall contribute a minimum of $15 million to the fund after the appropriation is enacted.

For 2014, the Budget is requesting advance appropriations of $4.9 billion for 2014 for Medical Facilities. This request for advance appropriations fulfills the Administration's commitment to provide reliable and timely resources to support the delivery of accessible and high-quality medical services for veterans.
For Medical Facilities, the Budget reflects the following appropriation funding: the 2012 enacted advance appropriations of $5.4 billion; the 2013 appropriations request of $5.4 billion; and the 2014 advance appropriations request of $4.9 billion. Medical Facilities provides for the operations and maintenance of the capital infrastructure required to provide health care to the Nation's veterans. These costs include utilities, engineering, capital planning, leases, laundry services, grounds maintenance, trash removal, housekeeping, fire protection, pest management, facility repair, and property disposition and acquisition. In 2014, VA is proposing to move Biomedical Engineering Services from Medical Facilities to Medical Services in order to properly align funding with the nature of the services provided.

For 2013, the total budgetary resources of $1.9 billion is comprised of $583 million in direct appropriations, $583 million in medical care support, and $710 million in Federal and private sector grants. The research program will support 3,526 full time equivalents through direct appropriation and a total of over 15,000 research staff through all funding sources.
This account is an intramural program that has had significant success developing research leading to clinical achievements that improve the health and quality of life for veterans and the Nation. VA is at the forefront of producing new transformational approaches and technologies for preventing, diagnosing, and treating disease. VA research transforms medicine by uniquely engaging veterans both as clinical patients and as research volunteers. Through technology, advancements, and information, research helps transform VA's health care into a leading example of medicine in the 21st Century.
High priority research programs in 2013 will provide Operation Enduring Freedom (OEF), Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF) and Operation New Dawn (OND) veterans and rural veterans with critical needs research activity. VA will focus on key areas affecting OEF/OIF/OND veterans including Homelessness/Access to Care and Rural Health, Personalized Medicine and Military Exposure-Related Illnesses. Homelessness is a top priority for VA, and research will focus on interventions, risk factors and health care usage patterns in an effort to eliminate homelessness. With regard to Access to Care, one of the critical missions of VA research is to identify system-wide gaps in care to veterans. This includes assessing specific barriers to care for vulnerable populations, including rural veterans. VA research has demonstrated an explicit focus on access as a component of validating the quality of care in all VA health care services, organizational structures, and mechanisms for delivering care. Current studies address new telemedicine and telehealth initiatives, community based outpatient clinics (CBOCs), collaborative care models, access for OEF/OIF/OND veterans, and access to specialized care such as VA rehabilitation services. The development, evaluation, and implementation of new telemedicine technologies represent an important focus of research to improve access to VA health care, particularly for rural veterans. Emphasis will also be placed on personalized medicine where using information on a patients' genetic make-up can lead to a more tailored, precise and effective level of care. The Million Veteran Program, with the goal of collecting one million genetic samples, will continue to be a significant undertaking in 2013 as VA investigates whether genetic influences in disease and/or responses to medications can be used to further advance personalized care with the ultimate goal to develop an evidence base for treatments that are optimized to each veteran's genetic makeup.
VA core research priorities in 2013 will include Mental Health, Gulf War Veterans' Illnesses and Exposures, Prosthetics, Traumatic Brain Injury , Spinal Cord Injury, Women Veterans, and a special initiative on Researching Pain.
VA scientists who partner with colleagues from other Federal agencies, academic medical centers, nonprofit organizations, and commercial entities nationwide further expand the reach and scope of VA research. Through VA's academic affiliations as well as collaborations with other Federal agencies, it is fully integrated with the larger biomedical research community.
Veterans' health issues are addressed comprehensively in the following four program divisions and the medical care research support required for these programs:
Biomedical laboratory._Supports preclinical research to understand life processes from a molecular, genomic, and physiological level in regard to diseases affecting veterans.
Clinical science._Administers investigations (i.e., human subject research such as drug, surgical, single subject, pilot and multi-center cooperative studies as well as feasibility trials) aimed at instituting new, more effective clinical care.
Health services._Supports studies to identify and promote effective and efficient strategies to improve the delivery of health care to veterans.
Rehabilitation._Develops novel approaches to restoring veterans with traumatic amputation, central nervous system injuries, loss of sight
and/or hearing, or other physical and cognitive impairments to full and productive lives.
VA's Medical and Prosthetic Research programs are included in the Federal Research and Development (R&D) budget.

VA has the authority to collect co-payments which are deposited into the Medical Care Collections Fund (MCCF) receipt account. As allowed by the provisions of the appropriations Act, these receipts are transferred to the Medical Services appropriation and the Joint Department of Defense-Department of Veterans Affairs Medical Facility Demonstration Fund (Joint Demonstration Fund) where they remain available until expended for the purposes of this account. In 2011, $2.8 billion was collected in the MCCF receipt account and transferred to the Medical Services appropriation and Joint Demonstration Fund to provide health care to our veterans. These collections consist of co-payments from veterans for inpatient, outpatient, and nursing home care, and prescribed medications; third-party insurance payments from veterans for nonservice-connected conditions; and collections from enhanced-use leases, the Compensated Work Therapy Program, Compensation and Living Expensed Program, and the Parking Program.

This fund consists of gifts, bequests, and proceeds from the sale of property left in the care of the facilities by former beneficiaries; patients' fund balances; and proceeds from the sale of effects of beneficiaries who die leaving no heirs or without having otherwise disposed of their estate. Such funds are used to promote the comfort and welfare of veterans at hospitals, nursing homes, and domiciliaries where no general appropriation is available. Public Law 102–54 authorizes compensation work therapy and therapeutic transitional housing and loan programs to be funded from the General Post Fund. (38 U.S.C. chs. 83 and 85.)

This appropriation provides for the payment of compensation, pension, and burial benefits to veterans and survivors.
Compensation is paid to veterans for disabilities incurred in or aggravated during active military service. Dependency and Indemnity Compensation is paid to survivors of servicepersons or veterans whose death occurred while on active duty or as a result of service-connected disabilities. Compensation and vocational rehabilitation is provided to the children of Vietnam veterans who were born with certain birth defects. The Secretary may pay a clothing allowance to each veteran who uses a prescribed medication for a service-connected skin condition or wears a prosthetic or orthopedic appliance (including a wheelchair) which, in the judgment of the Secretary, tends to damage or tear the clothing of such veteran.
Miscellaneous benefits provided for are:
(a) payments for claims made pursuant to the provision of the World War Adjusted Compensation Act of 1924, as amended;
(b) a special allowance (38 U.S.C. 1312) to dependents of certain Veterans who died after December 31, 1956, but who were not fully and currently insured under the Social Security Act; and
(c) payments authorized by the Equal Access to Justice Act.
The appropriation also provides for a program to allow VA to perform income matches for certain compensation recipients.
In accordance with Public Law 97–377, the Reinstated Entitlement Program for Survivors (REPS) program restores Social Security benefits to certain surviving spouses or children of veterans who died of service-connected causes.
Legislation is proposed to provide a cost-of-living adjustment comparable to the annual social security increase to recipients of disability compensation, dependency and indemnity compensation, and clothing allowances. The increase, effective with payments made on January 1, 2013, is expected to be 1.9 percent.

Pension benefits may be paid to veterans or their survivors. A veteran's entitlement is based on active duty service of a specific length (normally 90 days or more) during a designated war period, disabilities considered permanent and total, and countable income below established levels. There is no disability requirement for survivor cases or veterans age 65 or older. Income support is provided at established benefit levels.
An automatic annual cost-of-living increase comparable to the annual social security increase is provided for those pensioners in the improved program and to parents receiving dependency and indemnity compensation. The increase, effective with payments made on January 1, 2013, is expected to be 1.9 percent.

This appropriation finances educational assistance allowances for certain service persons, veterans, and for eligible dependents of those: (a) veterans who died from service-connected causes or have a total and permanent rated service-connected disability; and (b) servicepersons who were captured or missing in action. In addition, certain disabled veterans are provided with vocational rehabilitation, specially adapted housing grants, and automobile grants with the associated approved adaptive equipment. Voluntary contributions by eligible servicepersons and matching contributions provided by the Department of Defense are included in the Post-Vietnam Era Veterans Education Account.
The Post 9–11 GI Bill (Chapter 33)._Public Law 110–252, greatly expanded education benefits beginning on August 1, 2009. Based on length of active duty service and training rate, trainees may be entitled to benefits including: tuition and fees, housing allowance, books and supplies stipend, kickers, and Yellow Ribbon matching payments. Certain active duty members of the Armed Forces may transfer benefits to a spouse or children.
All volunteer force educational assistance (Montgomery GI Bill)._Public Law 98–525, enacted October 19, 1984, established two new educational programs: an assistance program for veterans who enter active duty during the period beginning July 1, 1985; and an assistance program for certain members of the Selected Reserve. Public Law 108–375 established a program to provide educational assistance to members of the reserve components called or ordered to active service in response to a war or national emergency declared by the President or the Congress, in recognition of the sacrifices that those members make in answering the call to duty. The Readjustment Benefit appropriation pays the basic benefit allowance for veterans, except for certain Post-Vietnam Era Veterans Education participants who transferred to the Montgomery GI Bill program. Supplementary educational assistance, Post-Vietnam Era Veterans Education converters, reservists, and the National Call to Service Program are financed by payments from Department of Defense.
Survivors and Dependants Educational Assistance (Chapter 35)._Benefits are provided to children and spouses of veterans who died of a service-connected disability or whose service-connected
disability is rated permanent and total. In addition, dependents of servicepersons missing in action or interned by a hostile
foreign government for more than 90 days are also eligible. The following table provides a comparison of trainees and costs
for the Dependents Educational Assistance program.
The Veterans Retraining Assistance Program, established under Public Law 112–56, is a program that, beginning on July 1, 2012, will provide up to 12 months of retraining
assistance to veterans at least 35 years of age but not more than 60 years of age, who are unemployed, received an honorable
discharge and have no eligibility remaining for other education benefits. Veterans participating in this program would receive
monthly payments equal to the three-year payment rate under the Montgomery GI Bill (MGIB) chapter 30 program.
The following table shows a caseload and cost comparison for these beneficiaries under existing legislation.

Vocational Rehabilitation and Employment (Chapter 31)._Servicemembers and veterans with service-connected disabilities receive the assistance necessary to help them prepare for, obtain, and maintain suitable employment. Comprehensive assessments may include interest and aptitude testing as well as specialized assessments such as functional capacity examinations. During the training phase of the program, eligible servicemembers and veterans are provided assistance for necessary training such as tuition, fees, books and supplies at colleges, technical schools and other training programs. A veteran enrolled in training receives a monthly subsistence allowance. Eligible veterans may also receive specialized or adaptive equipment to help them overcome a disability or enable them to compete with non-disabled individuals. At the completion of training, veterans are provided with employment and placement services, including supplies and equipment needed to enter employment, adaptive equipment and workplace accommodations, incentives to employers to reimburse them for hiring and training veterans with disabilities, and two final months of subsistence allowance.

Tuition Assistance._Public Law 106–398, enacted October 30, 2000, allows the military services to pay up to 100 percent of tuition and expenses charged by a school for service members. If a service department pays less than 100 percent, a service member eligible for the Montgomery GI Bill Active-duty (MGIB) or the Post 9–11 GI Bill (Chapter 33) can elect to receive VA benefits for all or a portion of the remaining expenses. Public Law 108–454 established a program that provides availability of education benefits for payment for national admissions exams and national exams for credit at institutions of higher education.
The National Exams._The benefit allows VA to reimburse for the fee charged for national tests for admission to institutions of higher learning and national tests providing an opportunity for course credit at institutions of higher learning.
Licensing and Certification Test Payments._Under Public Law 106–419, veterans and other eligible persons may receive up to $2,000 to pay fees required for civilian occupational licensing and certification examinations needed to enter, maintain, or advance in employment in a vocation or profession, effective March 1, 2001.
National Call to Service._The 2003 National Defense Authorization Act directs the Department of Defense to offer an active duty enlistment option of 15 months plus training time to facilitate interest in National Service. Program participants will be given the opportunity to select one of the following incentives: a $5,000 enlistment bonus, repayment of student loans up to $18,000, or one of two education allowances.
Work-Study._Certain veterans, reservists, and dependents pursuing a program of rehabilitation, education or training, who are enrolled as full-time students, can work up to 250 hours per semester, receiving the Federal ($7.25 as of July 24, 2009) or state minimum wage rate, whichever is higher.
Payments to States._State approving agencies are reimbursed for the costs of inspecting, approving, and supervising programs of education and training offered by educational institutions and training establishments in which veterans, dependents, and reservists are enrolled or are about to enter.
Reporting Fees._Reporting fees are paid to education and training institutions to help defray the costs of certifying education enrollment for veterans enrolled in training during a calendar year.

The insurance business line administers six life insurance programs, including two trust funds, two public enterprise funds,
a trust revolving fund, and Veterans' Mortgage Life Insurance (VMLI), and supervises four additional programs for the benefit
of servicepersons, veterans, and their beneficiaries through contracts with a commercial company. All programs are operated
on a commercial basis, to the extent possible, consistent with all applicable statutes. The insurance appropriation is the
supplemental funding mechanism for the following Government life insurance activities: National Service Life Insurance (NSLI);
Service-Disabled Veterans Insurance Fund (S-DVI); and Veterans' Mortgage Life Insurance.
National Service Life Insurance._Payments are made to the NSLI fund for certain World War II veterans for: (a) extra hazards of service; (b) gratuitous insurance granted to certain persons unable to apply for National Service Life Insurance; and (c) death claims on policies under the waiver of a premium while the insured was on active duty.
Payment to Service-Disabled Veterans Insurance Fund._Payments are made to the S-DVI fund to supplement the premiums and other receipts of the fund in amounts necessary to pay claims on insurance policies issued to veterans with service-connected disabilities.
Veterans' Mortgage Life Insurance._Payments are made to mortgage holders under this program, which provides mortgage protection life insurance to veterans who have received a grant for specially adapted housing due to severe disabilities. The trend in the number and amount of insurance policies in force appears in the following table.

The Insurance Act of 1951 established the Service-Disabled Veterans Insurance (S-DVI) program for veterans with service-connected disabilities. S-DVI is open to veterans who separated from the service on or after April 25, 1951. This fund finances the payment of claims on existing life insurance policies and remains open for new issues at standard rates to veterans having service-connected disabilities.
Death claims._Represents payments to designated beneficiaries.
All other._Represents payments to policyholders who surrender their policies for their cash value and hold endowment policies which have matured.
Capital investment._A policyholder may borrow up to 94 percent of the value of his or her policy.
Payments to General Operating Expenses (GOE), Veterans Benefits Administration._Represents the administrative costs of claims processing and account maintenance.
The trend in the number and amount of policies in force is indicated in the following table.

|
Financing._Operations are financed from premiums and other receipts. Additional funds are received by transfer from the Veterans Insurance and Indemnities appropriation, instead of direct appropriations to this fund.
Operating results and financial condition._Since premium and other receipts are insufficient to cover operations, the fund continues to project liabilities in excess of assets. The deficit is expected to reach an estimated $1,230 million by September 30, 2013.

Note._Department of Veterans Affairs insurance policy loans are not an extension of Federal credit. Credit schedules previously
shown for this account have been discontinued.
This fund pays claims and administrative costs on participating life insurance policies issued during the period May 1, 1965,
through May 2, 1966, under three life insurance programs: (1) service-disabled standard insurance; (2) service-disabled rated
insurance; and (3) nonservice-disabled insurance availing disabled World War II and Korean conflict veterans an opportunity
to acquire life insurance coverage who were no longer eligible for other government insurance.
Budget program:
Death claims._Represents payments to designated beneficiaries.
Dividends._Policyholders participate in the distribution of annual dividends.
All other._This represents resources for the administrative costs of processing claims and maintaining the accounts, and to those policyholders who: (a) surrender their policies for cash value; (b) hold endowment policies which have matured; and (c) have purchased total disability income coverage and subsequently become disabled.
Policy loans made._A policyholder may borrow up to 94 percent of the cash value of his policy at an interest rate adjusted to reflect private
sector borrowing costs.
The following table reflects the decrease in the number of policies and the amount of insurance in force:

This fund finances the payment of group life insurance premiums to private insurance companies under the Servicemembers' Group Life Insurance (SGLI) Act of 1965, as amended. SGLI is a program for Servicemembers on active duty, ready reservists, members of the National Guard, members of the Commissioned Corps of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and the Public Health Service, cadets and midshipmen of the four service academies, and members of the Reserve Officer Training Corps. SGLI coverage is available in $50,000 increments up to the maximum of $400,000. Veterans' Group Life Insurance (VGLI) is a program of post-separation insurance which allows Servicemembers to convert their SGLI coverage to renewable term insurance. Family Servicemembers' Group Life Insurance (FSGLI) is a program extended to the spouses and dependent children of members insured under the SGLI program. FSGLI provides up to a maximum of $100,000 of insurance coverage for spouses, not to exceed the amount of SGLI the insured member has in force, and $10,000 of free coverage for dependent children. Spousal coverage is issued in increments of $10,000.
The Servicemembers' Group Life Insurance Traumatic Injury Protection Program (TSGLI) became effective December 1, 2005. TSGLI provides for payment between $25,000 and $100,000 (depending on the type of injury) to any member of the uniformed services covered by SGLI who sustains a traumatic injury that results in certain serious losses.

As required by the Federal Credit Reform Act of 1990, this account records, for these programs, the subsidy costs associated with the direct loans obligated and loan guarantees committed in 1992 and beyond, (including modifications of direct loans or loan guarantees that resulted from obligations or commitments in any year), as well as for the administrative expenses of these programs. The subsidy amounts are estimated on a net present value basis.
Veterans Affairs (VA) housing program account._The housing program helps eligible veterans, active duty personnel, surviving spouses, and members of the Reserves and National
Guard purchase, retain, and adapt homes in recognition of their service to the Nation. When a borrower purchases a home,
the program operates by substituting the Federal Government's guaranty for a down payment that might otherwise be required.
Under 38 U.S.C. 3703, the guaranty amount for a borrower with full entitlement is as follows:
(a) 50 percent for loans of $45,000 or less;
(b) $22,500 for loans greater than $45,000, but no more than $56,250;
(c) The lesser of $36,000 or 40 percent of the loan amount for loans greater than $56,250, but not more than $144,000;
(d) 25 percent of the loan amount for loans of $144,001 to $417,000; or
(e) For certain loans in excess of $417,000, the guaranty will be the lesser of: 25 percent of the county loan limit, or 25
percent of the loan.
This appropriation provides for the corporate leadership and operational support to VA's housing business line.
The housing program facilitates the extension of private capital, on more liberal terms than generally available to nonveterans,
to assist veterans and servicepersons in obtaining housing credit, and assist veterans in retaining their homes during periods
of temporary economic difficulty through intensive supplemental mortgage loan servicing.
Guaranteed transitional housing loans for homeless veterans._Established as a pilot project by the Veterans Benefits Improvement Act of 1998, Public Law 105–368, this program will not execute any new loans. The existing loan will continue to be serviced within the financing account and no further funds will be required from the program account.

This program began as a pilot in 1993 and was made permanent on June 15, 2006 through Public Law 109–233.
The Vocational Rehabilitation Loan Program provides additional funding assistance to cover the costs of subsistence, tuition, books, supplies, and equipment in conjunction with service connected disability benefits provided to Veterans participating in VA's Vocational Rehabilitation and Counseling Program as authorized by chapter 31 of title 38, United States Code. Repayment of these loans is made in monthly installments, without interest, through deductions from future payments of compensation, pension, subsistence allowance, educational assistance allowance, or retired pay.

Note._Department of Veterans Affairs insurance policy loans are not an extension of Federal credit. Credit schedules previously
shown for this account have been discontinued.
This fund was established in 1940. It is for the World War II servicemen's and veterans' insurance program. Over 22 million
policies were issued under this program. Activity of the fund reflects a declining claim workload. The trend in the number
and amount of policies in force is shown as follows:

Insurance in force (dollars in millions) | $8,040 | $7,172 | $6,321 |
|
This fund is operated on a commercial basis to the extent possible. The income of the fund is derived from premium receipts, interest on investments, and payments which are made to the fund from the Veterans Insurance and Indemnities appropriation.
Assets of the fund, which are largely invested in special interest-bearing Treasury securities and in policy loans, are expected to decrease from an estimated $6,862 million as of September 30, 2012 to $6,167 million as of September 30, 2013. The actuarial estimate of policy obligations as of September 30, 2013, totals $6,221 million, leaving a balance of $289 million for contingency reserves.

Note._Department of Veterans Affairs insurance policy loans are not an extension of Federal credit. Credit schedules previously
shown for this account have been discontinued.
This fund was established in 1919 to receive premiums and pay claims on insurance issued under the provisions of the War Risk
Insurance Act. The general decline in the activity of the fund is indicated in the following table:
POLICIES AND INSURANCE IN FORCE
|
|||
2011 actual | 2012 est. | 2013 est. | |
|
|||
Number of policies | 2,958 | 2,241 | 1,646 |
Insurance in force (dollars in millions) | $8 | $5 | $4 |
|
The fund is operated on a commercial basis to the extent possible. The income of the fund is derived from interest on investments. Effective January 1, 1983, premiums were discontinued because reserves held in the fund were adequate to meet future liabilities of the program.
Assets of the fund, which are largely invested in interest-bearing securities and policy loans, are estimated to decrease from $13.5 million as of September 30, 2012, to $9.9 million as of September 30, 2013, as an increasing number of policies mature through death or disability. The actuarial evaluation of policy obligations as of September 30, 2013, totals $9.4 million, leaving a balance of $0.5 million for contingency reserves.

shown for this account have been discontinued.
This fund finances the payment of claims on life insurance policies issued before January 3, 1957, to veterans who served
in the Armed Forces subsequent to April 1, 1951. No new policies can be issued. Policyholders may elect to purchase total

The mission of the National Cemetery Administration is to honor veterans with final resting places in national shrines and with lasting tributes that commemorate their service to our Nation. The National Cemetery Administration's vision is to serve all veterans and their families with the utmost dignity, respect, and compassion. Every national cemetery will be a place that inspires visitors to understand and appreciate the service and sacrifice of our Nation's veterans. There are six related programs managed by the National Cemetery Administration including: (1) burying eligible veterans and their family members in national cemeteries and maintaining the graves and their environs as national shrines; (2) administering grants to States and Tribal Governments in establishing, expanding, improving, or operating veterans cemeteries; (3) providing headstones and markers for the graves of eligible veterans; (4) providing presidential memorial certificates to family and friends of deceased veterans, recognizing the veterans' contribution and service to the Nation; (5) providing graveliners or partial reimbursement for a privately purchased outer burial receptacle for each new grave in open national cemeteries administered by the National Cemetery Administration; and (6) recording First Notice of Veteran Deaths into VA electronic files to ensure timely termination of benefits and next-of-kin notification of possible entitlement to survivor benefits.
The National Cemetery Administration also reflects budget information for the National Cemetery Gift Fund and the National Cemetery Administration Facilities Operation Fund. Through the Gift Fund, the Secretary is authorized to accept gifts and bequests which are made for the purpose of beautifying national cemeteries or are determined to be beneficial to such cemeteries, or are made for the purpose of the operation, maintenance, or improvement of the National Memorial Cemetery of Arizona. Through the Facilities Operation Fund, the Secretary is authorized to lease any undeveloped land and unused or underutilized buildings of the National Cemetery Administration, or parts or parcels thereof, for a term not to exceed 10 years. Proceeds from such leases are deposited in the Facilities Operation Fund, and are available to cover costs incurred by the National Cemetery Administration in the operation and maintenance of property of the Administration.
Note: Total obligations reported include the net of recoveries of prior year paid and unpaid obligations while VA is in the process of modifying its financial system to record recoveries consistent with OMB Circular No. A-11.

The VA Franchise Fund was established under the authority of the Government Management Reform Act of 1994 and the VA and Housing and Urban Development and Independent Agencies Act of 1997. VA was selected by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) in 1996 as one of the six executive branch agencies to establish a franchise fund pilot program. Created as a revolving fund, the VA Franchise Fund began providing common administrative support services to the VA and other government agencies in 1997 on a fee-for-service basis. In 2006, under the Military Quality of Life and Veterans Affairs Appropriations Act, Public Law 109–114, permanent status was conferred upon the VA Franchise Fund. VA Enterprise Centers are the lines of business within the VA Franchise Fund and are expected to have net billings of about $541 million and employ 1,249 in 2013. The Franchise Fund concept is intended to increase competition for government administrative services, resulting in lower costs and higher quality.
