Planning for our future

Since 1934, San Francisco VA Health Care System has been improving the health of those who have so proudly served our nation. We consider it our privilege to serve the health care needs of the more than 310,000 Veterans living in an 8-county area of Northern California. We have a long history of conducting cutting edge research, establishing innovative medical programs, and providing compassionate care to Veterans.

Long-term planning process

We are devoted to providing state-of-the-art health care, conducting important clinical research, and serving as a leading provider of medical education.  As part of our long-term planning process, we prepared a Long Range Development Plan (LRDP)—which for purposes of master planning—outlines the facilities on our Fort Miley Campus, divided into planned phases of implementation. As part of the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) process, we completed a Final Environmental Impact Statement (EIS), which describes the environmental effects of implementing the LRDP and its NEPA alternatives. A Record of Decision was published on October 21, 2015.

Long Range Development Plan

As part of our planning process, we have updated our Long Range Development Plan (LRDP), which, for purposes of master planning, outlines proposed development on our Fort Miley Campus through the year 2027.

The LRDP is a living, dynamic document, one that outlines a sequence of steps for implementation in both the near and long term, while also providing the flexibility to shift priorities, as needed. The LRDP is anticipated to change in the future as priorities change and shift to meet the needs of our Veterans.
