Drug information resources in the Veterans Affairs healthcare system.

Results of a survey characterizing drug information services and resources from a defined practice area are presented. At the end of 1992, a questionnaire was mailed to 167 Veterans Affairs Medical Centers and Outpatient Clinics. One hundred fifty-one of the surveys (> 90%) were completed and analyzed. The knowledge obtained from this survey may provide a basis for future development of an essential clinical service within the Veterans Affairs health care system.
