\"\"Two gifts support military health programs<\/b><\/h3>\n

The San Antonio area has one of the largest concentrations of active-duty military personnel and veterans in the nation, with an estimated 159,000 veterans living in Bexar County, according to the Bexar County Veterans Service Office. And that number is expected to grow.<\/p>\n

To support them, USAA has given $1.5 million to establish the USAA \u201cPatty and Joe Robles, Jr.\u201d Distinguished Chair for Military Health and the USAA \u201cPatty and Joe Robles, Jr.\u201d Endowment in Military Health. The funds will be used to support the director of the Military Health Institute<\/a> and for military health programs and institute infrastructure. Another $500,000 was given for faculty recruitment and start-up costs for the institute.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis formalizes our Military Health Institute and allows it to be sustained,\u201d said retired Maj. Gen. Byron C. Hepburn, M.D.<\/a>, the institute\u2019s inaugural director. \u201cIt shows a commitment to us from a major national organization.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Military Health Institute was established in 2014 to improve the health of military service members, veterans and their families through education, research, clinical care and community engagement.<\/p>\n

\u201cSan Antonio really has a unique aggregation of incredible assets and national resources when you talk about military health,\u201d Dr. Hepburn said. \u201cThey say San Antonio is Military City, USA. It\u2019s really Military Medicine City, USA.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
