The common aim of my work to provide insights into the experience of Veterans, VA providers, frontline staff, and community stakeholders, ensuring that their voices are heard by policymakers. I direct the COIN qualitative research core providing methods expertise and training across a wide range of HSR projects. My primary research focus is on partnered evaluation of national VA health system initiatives including access to care and EHR modernization. He is currently Co-PI of the Partnership Integrating Rapid Cycle Evaluation to Improve Cerner Implementation program (EMPRIC) and the Strengthening Cerner Implementation for Health Professions Trainees to Optimize Learning And Reinforce Veteran Care (SCHOLAR) QUERI partnered evaluations.
Receiving and providing healthcare is a deeply meaningful experience. I was honored to be the recipient of the 2018 HSR Health System Impact Award for critical contributions to VA’s efforts to ensure and improve Veterans’ access to care. This award reflected the work of many and I hope to continue working with amazing colleagues to contribute to the VAs mission to improve Veterans healthcare and the work experience of VA staff.

Understanding Access on the Ground: The Experience of Veterans, Providers and Staff

by George Sayre, PsyD
Seminar date: 4/18/2019

Description: This presentation will provide an overview of research focused on access to care and the VA’s efforts to improve access from the perspectives of Veterans, providers, and staff. Findings from these studies show a commitment to providing Veterans with the care they need, when they need it through both improved practice management and the implementation of innovative care delivery modalities. Associated challenges, barriers and unintended consequences will also be discussed. These findings provide an understanding of the complexity and subjectivity of access which are not fully reflected in purely numerical measures. Intended audience: Researchers and operational partners.
