COVID-19 Future State Operational Plan - 5/23/2022

VHA rolls out COVID-19 Future State Operational Plan

The Veteran Health Administration (VHA) has implemented a nation-wide COVID-19 Future State Operational Plan that begins today, May 23, 2022, which rolls out three standardized VHA Health Protection Levels – low, medium, and high.

Here’s what to know:

Implementing the COVID-19 VHA Health Protection Levels (low, medium, and high) will help Veterans and staff know what preventive steps to take based on the latest CDC data when entering a Veteran Health Indiana facility:

    • Safety protocols – wearing a mask, screening, visitations, and social distancing
    • COVID-19 community transmission level

On Mondays, signage at all Veteran Health Indiana health care facilities’ screening entrances will reflect the CDC’s Indiana county’s Health Protection Levels (low, medium, or high) and safety protocols for the week. For May 23, all Veteran Health Indiana health care facility levels are at the Low level.
