The VA Central Iowa Health Care System (VACIHCS) announced yesterday afternoon that it has received approval for the solicitation of a new or renovated building for the Knoxville Community Based Outpatient Clinic (CBOC). The Knoxville CBOC is currently located in building 1 on the VA Campus in Knoxville but will be relocating to a new space once the procurement process is complete.

Secretary of Veterans Affairs Shinseki signed the request for a new CBOC in Knoxville on December 7. The advertisement for solicitation will be on www.fbo.gov later this week and will remain on this website for three weeks.

VACIHCS is working to develop a new timeline for the completion of the project and will release this information as soon as it is available.
