The Green Mountain Care Board, created by the Vermont Legislature in 2011, is working to ensure that our health care system provides quality, affordable health care to all Vermonters while reducing waste and controlling costs. The Legislature assigned the GMCB three main responsibilities: regulation, innovation, and evaluation. The GMCB regulates not only health insurance rates, but also hospital budgets, Accountable Care Organizations, and major capital expenditures. The Board also innovates, testing new ways to pay for and deliver health care as part of its role in building a new system. Finally, the Board evaluates innovation projects, proposals for what benefits should be included in Vermont`s new health system, proposals for funding the new system, and the effect of the new system on Vermont`s economy. Throughout all of the Board`s work, the Board consistently works closely with Vermont health care providers and health care consumers to enhance health system transparency and consumer involvement.

The Wisconsin Department of Veterans Affairs was created in 1945 to consolidate separate veterans programs under one agency. Today, the WDVA provides grants and a variety of services to eligible Wisconsin veterans and their families. Programs included in the department’s mission are the: Wisconsin Veterans Homes, Wisconsin Veterans Memorial Cemeteries, Veterans Administration Regional Claims Office, Military Funeral Honors Program, Veterans Assistance Program and the Wisconsin Veterans Museum. These programs are designed to provide health, educational assistance, economic assistance and other services to specified veterans of the armed forces of the United States. The WDVA is led by a Secretary of Veterans Affairs who is nominated by the Governor of Wisconsin after consulting with the presiding officers of at least six Wisconsin veterans organizations. The Governor’s nomination of the Secretary must be confirmed by the Wisconsin State Senate. The department receives advice from a nine-member, part-time, citizen advisory Board of Veterans Affairs.
