Whether you’re new to the Columbia VA Health Care System or have been receiving care with us for years, our Columbia VAHCS Orientation Handbook is a helpful guide designed to connect Veterans with the information and resources they need.
Inside, Veterans can learn more about available services, important contacts, and tools to help them stay informed and engaged as a partner in their health care journey.
We encourage Veterans, caregivers, and family members to explore this resource and keep it handy for future reference.
This week, we proudly celebrate Health Information Professionals Week (April 20–24) at Columbia VA Health Care System!
Behind every patient record is a dedicated team ensuring accuracy, privacy, and accessibility of critical health information. Our Health Information Management (HIM) professionals—including medical coders, technicians, and managers—play a vital role in enhancing patient safety and supporting high-quality care in an increasingly digital healthcare environment.
Their work ensures that the right information is available at the right time, empowering providers and protecting our Veterans.
Join us in thanking our HIM team for their commitment, precision, and excellence!

On Tuesday, our friends from Progressive Insurance returned to the Columbia Fisher House for their quarterly day of service—and once again, they went above and beyond.
Their team treated our residents and staff to a delicious grilled meal while also rolling up their sleeves to enhance our outdoor spaces. From planting beautiful flowers around our Fisher House signs and patio planters to preparing our mulch beds, their efforts made a meaningful and lasting impact.
We are incredibly grateful for their continued partnership and generosity in supporting the Columbia Fisher House and the families we serve.
