The findings that difficulty accessing VHA care is a primary barrier for returning OEF/OIF Veterans would suggest the need for increased attention to efforts to streamline the process of care. Also, the findings that stereotypes about the types of Veterans who use VHA services are a barrier to care would point to the potential utility of initiatives aimed at educating Veterans and their family members about the increasingly diverse nature of the VHA patient population. Likewise, gender differences in beliefs about Veterans who seek VHA care might suggest the need to tailor these outreach efforts to the gender of the veteran. The present project will provide reliable and valid measures of barriers to care that can be used by other researchers to study factors that influence VeteransÂ’ health-care behaviors (e.g., use of services, treatment adherence, etc.). With Veterans now returning from Iraq and Afghanistan and seeking services at VHA, researchers require measures they can use to assess barriers to care within this population of Veterans with confidence. The availability of reliable and valid measures of salient barriers to care, and especially stigma-related barriers to care, can be used to enhance the quality of future research on VHA health-care use.
