Insurance Mission and Vision
The VA Insurance Mission is to: ? Provide high-value insurance benefits and services to our nation's Veterans, Servicemembers, and their beneficiaries.
The VA Insurance Vision is to be an organization that: ? Provides insurance services that are equal or superior to those provided by private insurance companies; ? Provides these services at a cost competitive with private companies; ? Provides fast, convenient access for our policyholders and beneficiaries; ? Provides customer communications that are fully explained, clear, timely and courteous; and ? Has a stable, diverse, knowledgeable, and satisfied workforce
The VA Insurance Core Values are: The Insurance Program shares VA's five core values that underscore the obligations inherent in our mission: integrity, commitment, advocacy, respect, and excellence. The core values define "who we are," our culture and how we care for Veterans. Our values are more than just words ? they affect outcomes in our daily interactions with Veterans and with each other. The first letter of each word--Integrity, Commitment, Advocacy, Respect, Excellence--creates a powerful acronym, "I CARE," that reminds each Insurance employee of the importance of their role.
These core values come together as five promises we make as individuals and as a program to those we serve. The core characteristics define "what we stand for," and help guide how we will perform our mission. They shape our strategy, guide the execution of our mission, and influence key decisions made within Insurance.
