The funding was filtered to Ohio in efforts to solve a waiting-list problem, according to The Columbus Dispatch.

According to the report, the center will add close to 66 full-time employees, including five primary-care physicians and seven primary care nurses, over a dozen mental-health practitioners and 27 specialists. The expansion comes at a time when veterans in the area are either waiting for, or not receiving, care.
