Spinal Cord Injury Veterans: Disability Benefits, Outcomes, and Healthcare Utilization Patterns

Abstract

The primary aim of the study is to use qualitative research methods to compare the impact of having additional financial resources provided to service-connected SCI Veterans with non-service connected SCI-Veterans who do not have these additional financial resources at VA and non-VA SCI Centers. During Year 3, the research team worked with the Community Advisory Board (CAB) to complete numerous administrative tasks required to implement study procedures, data collection and review data summaries. Administrative tasks that are ongoing include maintenance of IRB approval for continuation and amendment across both sites (Kessler and VANJHCS) as well as HRPO approval.
