M. Davis and Company /
V.A. Hospital Location Survey

The Veterans Administration Medical Center (VAMC: http://www.louisville.va.gov/)located in Louisville, KY has been evaluating options for the location of a medical center to replace the current facility. To help inform their decision, the VA contracted with M. Davis and Co. (MDAC: http://www.mdavisco.com/) of Philadelphia to ascertain veterans’ views concerning the proposed options by surveying a representative sample of the estimated 39,000 veterans in the Louisville VAMC coverage area. Five hundred thirty-seven veterans were interviewed by telephone by MDAC interviewers. The survey achieved a response rate of 63%. GR&C teamed with MDAC, to develop the questions, analyze the results, and draft the report.
