Located in downtown Baltimore, the Baltimore VA Medical Center (VAMC) is a premier facility within the VA Maryland Health Care System (VAMHCS) and an academic affiliate of the University of Maryland School of Medicine (UMSOM). The Baltimore VAMC is a modern 324-bed facility adjacent to University of Maryland Medical Center (UMMC). Both hospitals are conveniently connected by a walkway which facilitates integration of educational, research and clinical activities. Our facility is known for its advanced medical care, cutting-edge research, and collaborative teaching environment.

The Baltimore VAMC is one of only a few VA Medical Centers in the country with two large federally funded programs in geriatrics - Geriatric Research Education Clinical Center (GRECC) and a Claude D. Pepper Older Americans Independence Center. It is currently ranked as one of the top VA Medical Centers in VA-funded research.
