VA New Hampshire Vision 2025 Task Force

    The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) gives notice under the 
Federal Advisory Committee Act that the VA New Hampshire Vision 2025 
Task Force, which is a subcommittee of the Special Medical Advisory 
Group (SMAG), will meet January 9, 2018 from 8:00 a.m.-5:00 p.m. ET and 
January 10, 2018 from 8:00 a.m.-5:00 p.m. ET at the Department of 
Veterans Affairs, Manchester VA Medical Center, 718 Smyth Road 
Manchester, NH 03104, Building 1, 1st Floor, Training & Education Room. 
There will also be a teleconference line available for those attendees 
unable to attend in person. The meeting is open to the public.
    The purpose of the subcommittee is to develop a comprehensive set 
of options and recommendations to develop a future vision of what VA 
must do to best meet the needs of New Hampshire Veterans. The 
recommendations will be reviewed by the SMAG and then those final 
recommendations will be forwarded to the Secretary and Under Secretary 
for Health for decision and action.
    The agenda will include an update on the ongoing VA-led national 
market assessment project and facilitated sessions with task force 
members as they synthesize the various data and focus group inputs from 
the various VA and non-VA support they have received so far. The listen 
only teleconference line is reached by dialing 1-800-767-1750 and then 
entering the access code: 91129#. However, there are a limited number 
of lines. Consequently, if more than one person at an organization 
wants to join, we encourage you to use one phone line to allow other 
organization to listen. Otherwise, you are welcome to join in person. 
No time will be allocated at this meeting for receiving oral 
presentations from the public. However, the public may submit written 
statements for the Subcommittee's review to Brenda Faas, Designated 
Federal Officer, Department of Veterans Affairs at [email protected], 
or Thomas Pasakarnis, Alternate Designated Federal Officer, Department 
of Veterans Affairs at [email protected]. Any member of the 
public wishing to attend the meeting or listen in via the 
teleconference line or seeking additional information should contact 
Mr. Pasakarnis.

anyone attending must be prepared to show a valid photo government 
issued ID. Please allow 15 minutes before the meeting begins for this 
process.

    Dated: December 19, 2017.
