Daily News | Penn and U.S. Veterans Affairs will collaborate in effort to replace Philly and Coatesville VA centers
The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs and the University of Pennsylvania Health System have signed agreements that will allow them to begin working on plans to replace the government’s out-of-date facilities in Philadelphia and Coatesville and expand care for veterans in the region.
Elnahal referred to the Promise to Address Comprehensive Toxics Act of 2022, which expanded benefits for military veterans exposed to burn pits, Agent Orange, and other toxic substances. That law included the unrelated leasing provision.
Built in 1930 and located on 129 acres, the Coatesville facility would cost $120.8 million to bring up to modern building code, the VA said last year when the facility was on the chopping block.
