Three of Iowa’s federal delegates have joined together to find out why a Community Based Outpatient Clinic for veterans in Knoxville has yet to be awarded.
In a letter obtained by KNIA/KRLS News, Senators Chuck Grassley and Joni Ernst along with Congressman Dave Loebsack asked the secretary for the Department of Veteran’s Affairs and the administrator of the U.S. General Services Administration to provide a detailed update on the project’s progress. They would also like an outlined reason for the delay. Knoxville Hospital and Clinic’s CEO Kevin Kincaid was pleased to see the delegates inquiring about the project. He’s glad to see they’re putting pressure on the VA to at least be transparent on CBOC project’s status.
