next is provider payments this is critically important, we view our providers as partners. in order to be good partners to our providers we have to pay timely and accurately. and this is something that va continues to work on because of the multiple ways we have of buying care today, it creates a lot of confusion. i'll give you one example. when the choice act was passed va by law was required to send out nine million cards to individuals. these cards looked like health insurance cards. and we've encountered many veterans that have taken that card to a community provider, the provider worked on the assumption was eligible and delivered care. but on the back end we were not able to pay the clinicians because they did not meet those criteria. we have to have very clear eligibility criteria that's simple. no red tape. make it very easy for folks to understand. so that the community and the veteran know exactly what is eligible and what isn't. and then also the va can do our part to make sure we pay timely and accurately. then wrapped throughout all that is a focus on customer

also the public authority maintains the health benefits of all providers and any provider who works 25 hours in two successive months of which in one month if they were 25 hours, they qualify for health coverage and that is provided through san francisco healthy workers. so that is maintained by the public authority as well. one of the key services that the public authority provides is the mentorship program. this is when clients returned from long-term settings such as laguna honda. they assist them in successfully transitioning into the community. so that is all i have. if you have any questions i will be happy to answer. >> commissioners? >> my only question is i don't see a lot of capital costs. most of this is salary. so do we have another way of equipping these people with computers and various costs but it appreciated somehow? >> i would have to the assistance of the budget people. >> commissioners, there are not very many capital cost. this all passed through funding from the state. it was chartered by the state that we have this program and there are few items. possessing thre

service providers from accessing buildings to provide service. i have numerous examples on the commercial side as well and providers. a front page story in the chronicle showed the story of kevin in potrero hill how the property manager told him hoo had two options and couldn't go with the option of his choice. the property manager wouldn't tell him why. another resident in the sunset wanted faster internet but told no by the landlord and he was again denied. the simple examples and denials shouldn't be happening in san francisco. while the federal government prevents those from entering into service agreements with service providers they continue to exist in san francisco. it's hard to imagine today in the internet capital of the world we have all of our residents and 15% of the school children lack internet service at home. i believe we need to get everyone online and providing more choices and competition for tenants is one of the big keys to closing the digital divide and key to providing affordable high quality internet options so in terms o

providers feel less isolated and more connected to a network of high-quality providers across their state. as a result, they're more likely to stay in their underserved areas where they are needed the most. the health system runs more efficiently and effectively. providers have the training to see and treat more patients. we still have lots of questions about this model which is new, but among them what are the best successes? what are the barriers to adoption? for which conditions is it best suited? the echo act as amended will direct h.h.s. to study this model and give us the answers we need to make decisions at the federal level about how to best support expanding it nationally. one final note of thanks: it is not a coincidence that several of the successful health care related efforts this year have been the result of collaboration with and leadership of senator hatch. his bipartisan spirit, his pragmatism and his understanding of the legislative process make working with him, his staff a true pleasure. thank you, and i encourage my l colleagues to continue to join us in supporting th
