Cardiovascular disease (CVD), a leading cause of morbidity in this population, has driven the VHA to focus increasingly on prevention, risk reduction, and more effective management strategies.1 To address hypertension (HTN)—the most common chronic condition among veterans—the VHA has implemented nurse-led telehealth initiatives, including video blood pressure visits (VBPVs), since 2018.2 These virtual visits support accurate blood pressure (BP) monitoring, patient education, and medication adherence, helping to expand access and improve outcomes.2
